Johnson named to Biletnikoff Award watch list

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Texas Football's Collin Johnson was named to the 2018 watch list for the Biletnikoff Award, the Tallahassee Quarterback Club announced on Thursday morning. The Biletnikoff Award annually recognizes the outstanding FBS receiver, regardless of position. No Longhorn has ever won the award, which was first presented in 1994, but Jordan Shipley was a finalist in 2009.

A native of San Jose, Calif., Johnson has played in all 25 games in his career while making 10 starts. He eclipsed 1,000 career receiving yards last season in a game at West Virginia and enters 2018 with 82 catches for 1,080 yards and five TDs.
