Former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson knows a thing or two about great pass-catchers. The former Cincinnati Bengal was a six-time Pro Bowler and two-time first-team All-Pro in his 11-year NFL career.
Now, Johnson remains extremely active on social media, and one of his favorite pastimes is offering real analysis on some of the top wide receivers in the NFL today.
Johnson hasn’t been shy about his fondness for Washington wide receiver Terry McLaurin. Earlier this offseason, when Adam Schefter tweeted that quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick had signed with Washington, Johnson made a bold prediction for McLaurin in 2021.
Terry McLaurin 1500 yard season incoming & I’m guaranteeing that

Well, that was four months ago, and it’s clear Johnson is still high on McLaurin. This week, Johnson tweeted another prediction for McLaurin in 2021, and this time, he included new Washington receiver Curtis Samuel.
Remember this tweet: Terry McLaurin & Curtis Samuel are gonna go crazy with Fitzpatrick at the helm, an aggressive QB that takes chances & will improvise at the los & these two have the skill set that makes his job easier, i guarantee their production is bananas, no hat

Johnson’s opinion is one shared by many. Washington certainly believes having a quarterback like Fitzpatrick, who isn’t afraid to take shots down the field, will unlock the Football Team’s offense in 2021.
And, if Fitzpatrick stays healthy and can limit turnovers, McLaurin and Samuel will each have a big 2021 season.
Can McLaurin reach 1,500 yards? Don’t count him out.
