Who Should I Start? Juwan Johnson or Chigoziem Okonkwo

Friday, December 20, 6:55 PM

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (foot) was limited in practice on Friday for the second straight day this week. Johnson was also on the injury report last week with the same injury, but he played through it in the Week 15 loss to the Washington Commanders and caught two of his three targets for only 12 yards while playing 71 percent of the offensive snaps. The Saints offense is incredibly beat up right now and might be without star running back Alvin Kamara (groin) and quarterback Derek Carr (hand) for the final three games of the regular season. In addition, receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (chest, illness) is up in the air, which means the 28-year-old Johnson could be rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler's top target on Monday night versus the Green Bay Packers. Still, Johnson would have little upside as a TE2 in fantasy semifinal matchups in Week 16.

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo caught three of four targets for just eight receiving yards during Sunday's Week 14 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Okonkwo's three receptions totaled ten, four, and negative six yards. The 25-year-old is having his worst NFL season yet, catching just 30 passes for 299 yards and two touchdowns while ranking outside the top 30 fantasy tight ends. The 25-year-old belongs on waivers in most fantasy leagues, including next week against the Cincinnati Bengals.
