Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Quentin Johnston

Wednesday, November 26, 9:49 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins hasn't made a fantasy impact since the first two weeks of the season, and Week 12 wasn't any different. Despite seeing a couple more targets over the last few weeks, Hopkins still finished with only two or three fantasy points in half-PPR formats. Despite the fact that he's going up against a porous defense in the Cincinnati Bengals on Thanksgiving, he still projects outside the top 60. To make matters worse, Rashod Bateman (ankle) is officially set to return, so he'll likely see fewer targets. Fantasy managers should look elsewhere for some upside if wide receiver help is needed.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. This was the Chargers' first practice session as they prepare for Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs, which means that Johnston will have two more opportunities to log a full session before the team publishes its final injury report of the week. Fantasy managers should check back over the next few days for updates, but at this point, it appears that Johnston has a decent chance to play. He's the overall WR30 in PPR leagues this year and is coming off a decent game in which he caught three passes for 23 yards and a touchdown. In his last contest against the Chiefs, he racked up five catches, 79 yards, and two touchdowns. He's a low-end WR3/flex option for this week.
