Who Should I Start? Christian Watson or Quentin Johnston

Friday, November 14, 4:53 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (knee, hamstring) is off the injury report and is all set to play Sunday against the New York Giants. Watson was listed as limited in practice on Thursday and Friday, saying that he is still in the ramp-up stage in his return from the torn ACL suffered last season. There didn't seem to be any doubt in regards to his status for Week 11, however, and he should be a big part of Green Bay's passing attack against an exploitable Giants defense. The 26-year-old has had a healthy role in the three games since returning, posting the second-highest route share on the team at 70.1%, behind only Romeo Doubs. Watson is an explosive playmaker who Jordan Love likes to target downfield, but the production can be volatile.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (shin) is listed as questionable heading into Week 11, but put in a full practice on Friday, suggesting he is likely to play. Johnston led the team with 10 targets last week, finishing with five receptions for 42 yards. The Bolts' depleted offensive line is forcing Justin Herbert into quick throws, which has limited the deep connection with Johnston that we saw earlier in the season. Nonetheless, he faces a vulnerable Jacksonville Jaguars secondary that has allowed 31 receptions of 20 yards or more, which plays to Johnston's strengths. If cleared, he has a favorable matchup against CB Greg Newsome, who allows a 66.7% catch rate. Based on his recent target share and the matchup, Johnston is a viable boom-or-bust WR3 and is ranked as RotoBaller's WR26.
