Diontae Johnson A Solid PPR Option In Week 1
1 year agoPittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson once again proved to be a target hog in 2022, but disappointed for fantasy purposes as he failed to find the end zone a single time. His first opportunity to bounce back in 2023 will come at home against the San Francisco 49ers. Although San Francisco's defense limited quarterback and running back production last season, it was surprisingly vulnerable to wide receivers, surrendering the fifth-most fantasy points to the position. Led by quarterback Kenny Pickett, the Steelers offense is looking improved heading into the season, and Johnson should be one of the primary beneficiaries. The 27-year-old should be viewed as a low-end WR2 or high-end flex play this week, especially in PPR formats.
