ANALYSIS: The Chicago Bears' running back, Roschon Johnson, should be one of the top waiver wire targets in Week 6. The second-year pro has been solid the past two weeks despite D'Andre Swift being a top-5 running back. Last week, the former Texas star had 10 rushing attempts for 25 yards against the Carolina Panthers. However, he had two rushing touchdowns, scoring 14.5 half-point PPR fantasy points.

Johnson has three rushing touchdowns over the past two weeks, with all three coming around the goal line. The Bears have leaned on a 1-2 punch of Swift and Johnson, with the second-year pro being the short-yardage running back.
Fantasy players can start the former Longhorn star in Week 6 as a flex option or an RB2 as a bye-week replacement. Johnson faces a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that has surrendered 24 fantasy points per game to running backs this season. They have given up at least 20.5 fantasy points to running backs in all but one game this year.
