The 5-foot-10 wide receiver is one of the best in the country and has 649 receiving yards and eight scores this season.
Johnson is a major reason Oregon is the best team in the country, and it is great news that he will most likely be back by the end of the season.
The Ducks host Maryland this weekend in a game they should win. Then, they head to Wisconsin in a matchup that could give them some issues. It would be nice to have Johnson back by then so they don’t get tripped up by a team with much to prove.
