Former Penn State wide receiver Juwan Johnson is transferring to Oregon. The new Duck announced his decision to join the Oregon program with a quick message on his Twitter account.
As a graduate transfer, Johnson will be eligible to begin catching passes from Justin Herbert this fall. Johnson still brings some good size to the receiver position, and Oregon will hope to insert him into the offense will lead to a bit of a rebound after the 2018 season. After catching 54 passes for 701 yards and a touchdown in 2017, Johnson caught 25 passes for 352 yards in eight games last season for the Nittany Lions.
The biggest highlight of Johnson’s time at Penn State may have been his game-winning touchdown catch as time expired in a primetime road win at Iowa in 2017. The win helped keep Penn State’s early-season national title hopes alive a season after winning the Big Ten.
