Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or Quentin Johnston

Saturday, October 11, 9:58 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry continues to see his fantasy value diminish each week. In half-PPR formats, he's finished in RB1 territory only one time and has scored double-digit fantasy points twice. He only has one more touchdown than he does fumbles, and he still doesn't play any part in the passing game. Their opponent, the Los Angeles Rams, is currently ranked as the third-toughest team against running backs in fantasy as they give up just 15.56 fantasy points per matchup. They held Christian McCaffrey to 57 yards on 22 carries and Saquon Barkley to 46 yards on 18 carries. That combined with the Ravens' offensive line issues and fullback Patrick Ricard (calf) still sidelined, means Henry is projected to finish around RB19.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (hamstring) is trending toward being inactive for Sunday's road meeting with the Miami Dolphins. Johnston picked up a hamstring injury that limited him at practice leading up to Sunday's outing, leaving him with a questionable tag. However, it appears he won't be healthy enough to suit up against the hosting Dolphins. Fellow wideouts Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey figure to pick up a few extra looks in his absence, while rookies Tre Harris and Keandre Lambert-Smith should benefit from an uptick in snaps. Tight end Oronde Gadsden could also be in for an elevated workload with Johnston sidelined.
