A.J. Brown Back on Track With Two Touchdowns Sunday

Sunday, October 19, 5:49 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught four of his six targets for 121 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 7 win over the Minnesota Vikings. The 28-year-old has found his groove as a big-play threat lately, totaling 15 catches and 244 yards over his last three contests. He was one of several benefactors during this week's strong offensive performance. The passing game found plenty of life as Brown and DeVonta Smith combined for 13 catches, 304 yards, and three touchdowns. This duo will look to build on its momentum when facing a surging Giants squad in Week 8. Brown is a fringe top-12 fantasy receiver at the moment.

Juwan Johnson News

Juwan Johnson Falls Completely Off the Fantasy Map

Saturday, October 18, 12:44 AM

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson has seen his opportunities in the offense quickly decline, recording just two receptions for 17 yards in Week 6 against the Patriots. He also had a season-low two targets and lost a fumble in the contest. Johnson's fall from TE1 status coincides with the returns of fellow tight ends Taysom Hill and Foster Moreau, as well as a drop in passing attempts from quarterback Spencer Rattler, who averaged 36.5 attempts per game from Weeks 1-4, but just 28 over the last two games. Johnson now ranks TE30 on RotoBaller and can be safely left off rosters in most leagues.
