Who Should I Start? Javonte Williams or Quentin Johnston

Tuesday, November 11, 7:48 PM

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams was unable to offer fantasy managers much value during the Week 9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Williams rushed the ball 15 times for 83 yards and lost a fumble in the defeat. The 25-year-old was actually solid on the ground with 5.53 yards per carry during this game. However, Williams was a non-factor in the receiving game which hurt his fantasy value. The Cowboys are coming off a bye week and should be well rested for their matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 11. Fantasy managers should expect a bounce back performance from Williams during this one.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (shin) is listed as questionable heading into Week 11, but put in a full practice on Friday, suggesting he is likely to play. Johnston led the team with 10 targets last week, finishing with five receptions for 42 yards. The Bolts' depleted offensive line is forcing Justin Herbert into quick throws, which has limited the deep connection with Johnston that we saw earlier in the season. Nonetheless, he faces a vulnerable Jacksonville Jaguars secondary that has allowed 31 receptions of 20 yards or more, which plays to Johnston's strengths. If cleared, he has a favorable matchup against CB Greg Newsome, who allows a 66.7% catch rate. Based on his recent target share and the matchup, Johnston is a viable boom-or-bust WR3 and is ranked as RotoBaller's WR26.
