University of Toledo redshirt sophomore receiver Diontae Johnson knows when he is one-on-one with a defender and there is a pass heading his way, he has just one job.
“Every time, I feel like if the ball is in the air, it’s mine,” Johnson said. “Every time I have to go get it.”
Lately, it seems like the one-on-one matchups and 50-50 balls in the air all have been going his way. Against Ball State on Thursday, Johnson abused the Cardinals defense with a 67-yard touchdown on a back-shoulder fade down the sideline from quarterback Logan Woodside.
