Who Should I Start? Garrett Wilson or Quentin Johnston

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns, but is expected to play, according to Brian Costello of the New York Post. Wilson informed the media that he physically feels great and is all set to return for Sunday. The 25-year-old has been one of the most productive wide receivers in the league despite dealing with poor quarterback play. Wilson has recorded 36 receptions for 395 yards and four touchdowns on 56 targets in six games this season, ranking as WR9 in PPR points per game (16.6). The Jets' star wideout should reclaim his heavy target share in Week 10 in a tough matchup against the Cleveland Browns.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston bounced back from a zero-target performance by catching four passes for 53 yards and a touchdown against the Tennessee Titans. This week, he faces a vulnerable Pittsburgh Steelers defense that ranks 27th in allowing deep passes (20+ yards), which fits Johnston's downfield role. However, he is likely to have a tough matchup against Steelers cornerback Joey Porter Jr., who is giving up one of the fewest fantasy points per route run in the league (0.15). Johnston's role in the offense remains unpredictable due to the rotating group of pass-catchers, including emerging rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden. His value heavily depends on game script, since it relies on the offense creating opportunities down the field or near the goal line. Johnston should be considered a boom/bust FLEX option, projected as WR26 this week.
