Who Should I Start? Dalton Schultz or Juwan Johnson

Tuesday, December 30, 9:59 AM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz has been a solid PPR contributor this season, and he can be a great plug-and-play option in Week 18 if he's available on the waiver wire. Schultz and the rest of the Texans' starters will be playing in their Week 18 game against the Colts, according to coach DeMeco Ryans, since the team still has a chance to win the division. Schultz has a team-high 78 catches on the season for 704 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He had three catches for 19 yards in the team's win over the Chargers, giving him at least three catches in 14 of his 16 games this season. Two of his touchdowns have come in the last three weeks as well, making him a strong option to play at tight end if you need a solution at the position for the season finale.

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson hauled in eight of nine targets for 89 yards in the Week 16 victory over the Jets. His eight receptions were his most since Week 1, and Johnson has maintained a steady role in the Saints' passing attack all season, recording either a touchdown or at least four catches in all but two games. With injuries across the offense and a growing connection with rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, he should continue to see a healthy volume of targets. Johnson projects as a TE1 against a Titans defense that ranks middle of the pack against opposing tight ends.
