Who Should I Start? Diontae Johnson or Chris Olave

Monday, September 18, 6:50 PM

The Pittsburgh Steelers placed wide receiver Diontae Johnson (hamstring) and running back Anthony McFarland Jr. (knee) on Injured Reserve on Monday and promoted running back Qadree Ollison from the practice squad to the 53-man active roster in a corresponding move. Johnson will now have to miss four games after injuring his hamstring in the Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Pittsburgh also has a bye in Week 6, so the 27-year-old could return in Week 7 in a matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Fantasy managers should attempt to stash Johnson for now, as the 27-year-old should be heavily involved in the passing game once he's healthy again. In the meantime, George Pickens, Allen Robinson II and Calvin Austin III will be the team's three starting wideouts. Tight end Pat Freiermuth should also see an uptick in targets.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave will continue to soak up targets in Week 3. Olave has been targeted a team-high 21 times through the first two games and likely will remain quarterback Derek Carr's go-to option in the passing game. While Jaire Alexander blanketed D.J. Moore in Week 1, Drake London (6-67-1) had more success against him in Week 2. Alexander will likely shadow Olave, which could make his matchup tough, but do not hesitate to keep him in lineups this week.
