Who Should I Start? Courtland Sutton or Kaleb Johnson

Saturday, October 11, 8:36 AM

Although Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will face star cornerback Sauce Gardner and the New York Jets defense, he will likely lead the team in targets as they take the field in London. Sutton has been a consistent player this season, outside of a Week 2 dud, in which Troy Franklin had a breakout game. With averages of 13.5 half-ppr ppg and 16.1 full-ppr ppg coming into Week 6, Sutton is likely the only fully reliable option within the Broncos' core against a defense that typically gets exploited by the run game more than the pass. Fantasy managers should keep him in their lineups as a WR2 with upside, as Sutton comes in as WR15 in the latest RotoBaller rankings for Week 6.

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie running back Kaleb Johnson had his best chance yet for a breakout game in Week 4 with Steelers RB1 Jaylen Warren (knee) sidelined by a knee injury. However, Johnson remained stuck behind veteran back Kenneth Gainwell, who logged 134 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 25 total touches against the Minnesota Vikings. Johnson had just six carries for 22 yards, and has recorded just eight carries for 21 yards on the season. Pittsburgh has a bye in Week 5, and Warren may be ready to return in Week 6 for the Steelers' matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Even if Warren remains out, there's little reason to think Johnson would be set to jump Gainwell on the running back depth chart in Pittsburgh. The 22-year-old rookie maintains fantasy appeal in dynasty leagues, but he's tough to roster with any confidence in redraft formats.
