Who Should I Start? Diontae Johnson or Rhamondre Stevenson

Tuesday, October 28, 5:33 PM

Free-agent wide receiver Diontae Johnson is working out with the New York Giants on Tuesday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Johnson was with the Cleveland Browns during training camp and the preseason, but he was cut before the start of the regular season and hasn't joined a team since. The 29-year-old former third-rounder by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2019 out of Toledo spent time with the Carolina Panthers, Baltimore Ravens, and Houston Texans last year, catching a combined 33 passes on 67 targets for 375 yards and three touchdowns. The vast majority of his production came in Carolina, as he caught just three passes for 18 yards in five games with Baltimore and Houston to close out the year. It's been a notable fall for Johnson over the last year-plus, and if he were to sign with the G-Men, he'd merely be battling for a chance to join the active 53-man roster as receiver depth.

New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel announced on Friday that running back Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) is ruled out for Week 10 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, according to Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald. Stevenson will miss a second straight game after injuring his toe in the Week 8 victory over the Cleveland Browns. He has yet to practice since the injury, which means he could be on his way to a third straight missed game on a short week for next Thursday's divisional contest against the New York Jets. With Stevenson officially out again, rookie TreVeyon Henderson will be in line for lead-back duties again this Sunday in Tampa, with Terrell Jennings backing him up. The 23-year-old Henderson will be in play as a plug-and-play RB2 in fantasy lineups. Last week, with Stevenson out, he had a season-high 14 carries for 55 yards and also caught a season-high four passes on six targets for 32 yards.
