DeAndre Hopkins Looks Like a Player to Avoid in Week 5

Saturday, October 4, 2:19 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has been limited to the lowest-usage role of his career so far in 2025, recording five catches for 112 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets through four games. Hopkins has yet to play more than 35% of the offensive snaps in any of Baltimore's games. With Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) sidelined for Week 5, it will be tough to trust that backup QB Cooper Rush will be able to get Hopkins the downfield and end zone targets he needs to be effective. Additionally, the Ravens face one of the NFL's best pass defenses in the Houston Texans, who have allowed the second-fewest number of touchdown passes (three) in the league. Hopkins should be avoided by fantasy managers in Week 5.

Quentin Johnston on Week 6 Injury Report With Hamstring Issue

Wednesday, October 8, 7:11 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (hamstring) was listed as a limited practice participant in the first practice of the week on Wednesday. It's unclear if Johnston is in danger of missing a Week 6 game against the Miami Dolphins on the road, but it's something worth watching the rest of the week. The 24-year-old former first-rounder came out of the gates hot in his third NFL season to post four touchdowns in the first four weeks, but he had his worst game of the year in the Week 5 loss to the Washington Commanders, catching four passes for 40 yards while also losing a fumble. Johnston isn't going away in L.A.'s offense, though, and the Bolts could be looking to throw the ball more with rookie running back Omarion Hampton (ankle) on Injured Reserve. If Johnston is active in Week 6, he'll have a good chance to score his fifth TD of the year against Miami.
