Catches two scores in season opener Johnson caught 12 of 13 targets for 81 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 24-14 victory against Idaho. Impact Johnson started his second season with the Ducks on a high note, tallying team highs in targets and catches along with the team's only two receiving scores. This included a 12-yard touchdown that put the Ducks up 24-14 midway through the fourth quarter. The fifth-year senior was clearly the go-to option among this loaded wide receiver corps, as fellow starters Traeshon Holden and Evan Stewart combined for six catches on nine targets. Meanwhile, returning senior tight end Terrance Ferguson actually led the team with 87 receiving yards on seven catches. Oregon is expected to have one of the most prolific offenses in college football this season, and new signal-caller Dillon Gabriel certainly lived up to expectations by completing 41 of 49 passes for 380 yards. It's unlikely that Oregon's offense will want to pass the ball this much moving forward, but Johnson's status as the likely No. 1 option moving should promise another strong fantasy season is on tap.
