BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE2
ANALYSIS: New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson could see increased opportunities on Monday evening with Taysom Hill (ribs) ruled out, which makes him a TE2 in deeper formats and a high-risk option in DFS.
Johnson started the season on a high note by catching two of his three targets for 26 yards and a score in the season opener. However, since then, the tight end has caught just two passes for 13 yards over the past three games.

No. 2 tight end Foster Moreau saw most of the work during Weeks 2 and 3 but saw a slight drop in opportunities last weekend, which suggests Johnson might have an increased role in Week 5. In Week 4, Johnson logged 47 snaps to Moreau's 40.
However, even though he should have more opportunities on Monday evening, he has not been consistent and remains a TE2 and a high-risk, high-reward flex option in DFS.
