BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: After going over a year without a receiving touchdown, Diontae Johnson found the end zone in the Week 9 win over the Tennessee Titans. The veteran wide receiver has averaged only 8.3 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. However, he has played well since returning from a hamstring injury.
The former Toledo star has averaged 9.7 targets and 13.8 half-point PPR fantasy points per game over his first three games back from the injury, scoring double-digits in every matchup. But unfortunately, Johnson struggled last week in Week 10. He had only one receptions on four targets for 17 receiving yards and 2.2 fantasy points.
This week, the veteran faces the Cleveland Browns. Johnson didn’t play in the earlier matchup against the division rivals in Week 2. However, the Browns have shut down opposing wide receivers often this year. They have held wide receivers to only 21.4 fantasy points per game, the second-fewest in the NFL. Fantasy players can start Johnson thanks to his 27% target per route run rate this year (per Fantasy Points). Yet, temper your expectations against a talented Cleveland defense.
