Josh Johnson News
Friday, January 2, 1:19 PM
Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn officially named Josh Johnson as the team's starting quarterback for the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles, according to Tashan Reed of The Washington Post. Veteran Marcus Mariota (hand, quadriceps) will miss a second straight game to close out the year. Even though the Eagles will be resting key starters this weekend, Johnson will be hard-pressed to help fantasy managers without left tackle Laremy Tunsil (oblique) available. The 39-year-old signal-caller made his first start of the year in last week's Christmas Day loss to the Dallas Cowboys and went 15-for-23 passing for 198 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. Even in two-QB leagues this weekend, fantasy managers should have better options to choose from than Johnson.

Chris Oladokun News
Wednesday, December 24, 3:46 PM
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Chris Oladokun will now be the starting quarterback for the team heading into the last two games of the season. Kansas City lost Patrick Mahomes to an ACL tear in Week 15, and Gardner Minshew was the next man up in the QB room. Minshew started the game in Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans but left with a knee injury of his own, passing the torch to Oladokun. Oladokun performed well given the hand he was dealt, completing 11 of 16 pass attempts (69%) for 111 yards and rushing twice for seven yards. Last week's contest was the first time Oladokun had ever thrown a pass in an NFL game, so expect there to be some growing pains as he faces one of the toughest defenses in the league on Christmas. The Denver Broncos have allowed the fourth-fewest yards per game and fifth-fewest points per game this season while leading the league in sacks, so Oladokun will have his work cut out for him. The Chiefs quarterback will also have to compete without Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton, who were both placed on IR on Wednesday afternoon. Oladokun is ranked QB34 in our RotoBaller rankings, placing him dead-last. Oladokun should not be considered a fantasy option for Week 17
