Who Should I Start? Ja'Lynn Polk or Kameron Johnson

The New Orleans Saints are acquiring wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk (shoulder) and a 2028 seventh-round pick from the New England Patriots for a 2027 sixth-round pick, per Dianna Russini of The Athletic. Polk is currently on season-ending Injured Reserve due to a shoulder issue, so this is a future-focused move for New Orleans. A second-round pick in 2024, Polk recorded just 12 catches for 87 yards and two touchdowns in 15 games for New England as a rookie. He'll now get a chance at a fresh start with the Saints.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Kameron Johnson has been held without a catch in each of his last two games, and he'll likely remain off the fantasy radar in Week 10 against the New England Patriots. While Tampa Bay has been hit by the injury bug on offense, they've found receivers other than Johnson to step up and fill larger roles. For example, players like Tez Johnson and Sterling Shepard have been more involved with Mike Evans (collarbone) and Chris Godwin Jr. (fibula) sidelined. Meanwhile, Johnson has zero catches on one target over his last two games. He has just four catches this whole season, and all four came in Week 6 against the 49ers. The second-year Barton product should remain primarily involved on special teams, where he has four kick returns and four punt returns over the last two weeks.
