Tyler Johnson has had a rough start against Illinois, but he made up for it on this touchdown.

Playing in some wet conditions Saturday, Johnson has already bobbled or dropped a few passes. The traditionally sure-handed receiver has been a trustworthy playmaker throughout his career, and he’s battling through the rain with the Gophers.

Johnson was able to come down with this touchdown but even that play turned out a bit interesting. The pass from Tanner Morgan was initially bobbled into the air with defenders around Johnson in the end zone. Fortunately, Johnson reacted quickly and snagged the ball for the crucial score.
