Who Should I Start? Harrison Bryant or Juwan Johnson

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) was removed from the team's final Week 13 injury report on Thursday, but he will be a healthy scratch for Friday's divisional matchup against the hosting Kansas City Chiefs. Bryant sat out of the last two games due to his ankle injury and will now miss a third straight contest, although it appears he's put his ankle injury in the rearview mirror. The 26-year-old is the third QB in Vegas behind both Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer, so he's well off the fantasy radar now that Mayer is back with the team. In his first year with the Raiders in 2024, Bryant has barely been involved in the eight games he's been active for, catching nine of his 12 targets for 86 yards and no touchdowns.

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (foot) was limited in practice on Friday for the second straight day this week. Johnson was also on the injury report last week with the same injury, but he played through it in the Week 15 loss to the Washington Commanders and caught two of his three targets for only 12 yards while playing 71 percent of the offensive snaps. The Saints offense is incredibly beat up right now and might be without star running back Alvin Kamara (groin) and quarterback Derek Carr (hand) for the final three games of the regular season. In addition, receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (chest, illness) is up in the air, which means the 28-year-old Johnson could be rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler's top target on Monday night versus the Green Bay Packers. Still, Johnson would have little upside as a TE2 in fantasy semifinal matchups in Week 16.
