Cornelius Johnson: Off Bolts' practice squad
The Chargers cut Johnson from their practice squad Monday.
The 2024 seventh-round pick out of Michigan appeared to be sticking around in Los Angeles after failing to make the Chargers' initial 53-man roster in late August, but he's now been dropped. In a corresponding move, the Chargers signed wide receiver Dez Fitzpatrick to their practice squad Monday.

Cornelius Johnson: Sticks around with Bolts
Johnson signed with the Chargers' practice squad Wednesday.
Johnson was the Chargers' seventh-round selection of the 2024 NFL Draft, so it doesn't come as a surprise that he was signed to the taxi squad after failing to make the 53-man roster. He could be promoted to the active roster should any of the Bolts' wide receivers miss time.

Cornelius Johnson: Doesn't make Bolts' 53-man roster
The Chargers waived Johnson on Tuesday.
The Chargers drafted Johnson in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 253rd overall, and the Michigan wide receiver followed head coach Jim Harbaugh to Los Angeles. Johnson spent the offseason and training camp competing for a depth spot at wide receiver, but he wasn't able to record a catch until the Bolts' preseason finale against the Cowboys, when he finished with three receptions on seven targets for 34 yards. Given the fact that Johnson is a late-round draft pick, he'll likely be invited back on the Chargers' practice squad, assuming another team doesn't pick him up off waivers.

Chargers' Cornelius Johnson: Joins Harbaugh in Los Angeles
The Chargers selected Johnson in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 253rd overall.
The popular assumption was the Chargers would invest a number of draft picks in former Michigan players to join Jim Harbaugh in his new digs, but Johnson represents just the second maize and blue to be drafted by Los Angeles. At 6-foot-3, 228 pounds, Johnson proved to be a capable receiver in his five seasons at Ann Arbor, tallying 1,730 receiving yards and 119 receptions over the final three campaigns in the run-heavy offense. It's hard to imagine Johnson finally breaking out as a quality target despite all of his physical gifts, but at least alongside Harbaugh, he'll have some familiarity from a leadership perspective.
