Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Quentin Johnston

Saturday, December 6, 1:01 PM

Across 12 games this season, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has recorded 35 catches for 421 yards and one touchdown on 80 targets. The 26-year-old hasn't been much better in two games since Shedeur Sanders took over as Cleveland's starting quarterback, recording four catches for 65 yards on seven targets over the last two weeks. In Week 14, Jeudy and the Browns will take on the Tennessee Titans. Tennessee enters the week ranked 31st among NFL defenses in yards per pass attempt allowed (7.9). However, the Titans are a more respectable 19th in total passing yards allowed (2,832). The Browns could look to lean on their defense and run game in Week 14, which would be a negative for Jeudy's production upside. He profiles as a low-end WR4/deep-league flex option for fantasy managers in Week 14.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston is coming off a three-reception, 23-yard, one-touchdown game against the Las Vegas Raiders. However, the passing attack still heavily depended on quick, short passes to compensate for issues along the offensive line. Johnston will face a tough matchup against Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Quinyon Mitchell, who ranks 10th in allowing the fewest fantasy points per route. Additionally, the Eagles' pass defense ranks 24th in fantasy points allowed per dropback when in zone coverage. Johnston has struggled against zone, with a 14% target rate and 1.16 yards per route run. He is officially off the injury report after dealing with a shoulder injury, but the tough matchup, combined with the expected run-heavy game and uncertainty at quarterback, suggests he will continue to be a boom-or-bust low-end WR3, heavily reliant on scoring a touchdown.
