L.J. Johnson Jr. enters Utah State as a versatile, low-mileage slot weapon with upside
In the 2026 season, L.J. Johnson Jr. arrives at Utah State listed as a wide receiver/slot option after spending 2025 at Texas State, where he played in two games and recorded no stats; his value is less about box-score noise and more about fit, versatility, and untapped projection. He was also a multi-time transfer with prior production as a return threat and a compact 5-foot-10, 180-pound build, which suggests quickness, twitch, and special-teams utility. If a team wants a hungry, adaptable depth piece with some juice, he’s a reasonable bet.
