Who Should I Start? Jalen Tolbert or Quentin Johnston

Tuesday, October 28, 10:01 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert has been a modest producer so far this season, recording 14 catches for 172 yards and a touchdown on 24 targets across eight games played. Tolbert's playing time and target share have been trending downwards in recent weeks. After earning 18 targets over his first four games of 2025, Tolbert has been targeted just six times over his four most recent contests. Tolbert was always projected to be behind star wideouts CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens on the Dallas depth chart. However, Tolbert was also out-snapped by both Ryan Flournoy and KaVontae Turpin in the Cowboys' Week 8 loss to the Denver Broncos. When Lamb was sidelined by an ankle injury from Weeks 4-6, Tolbert was largely outplayed by Flournoy. Even if Lamb or Pickens were to get injured, Tolbert may now still find it difficult to get on the field. He should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in redraft leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (shin) is officially active for Sunday's game on the road in Jacksonville against the Jaguars in Week 11. Johnston was officially listed as questionable to play this weekend, but he has been cleared and will be active against Jacksonville. The 24-year-old former first-rounder did most of his damage this year earlier in the season when Ladd McConkey was quiet, but he has remained involved in the Chargers' passing attack. In last week's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, Johnston saw 10 targets, the second time this season he's had double-digit targets in a game. Through nine games in 2025, Johnston has 37 receptions for 502 yards and six touchdowns on 62 targets for the Bolts. Against the pass-funnel Jaguars defense, Johnston is a viable WR3/flex with boom potential for fantasy managers.
