Juwan Johnson News
Wednesday, October 28, 6:29 AM
New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson played 32 offensive snaps (56%) in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers but caught just one of three targets for seven yards. His routes per game have plummeted from 34.5 over the first four weeks to just 19.7 over his past three appearances, making him increasingly difficult to trust in fantasy lineups. Johnson can be dropped in 10- and 12-team leagues in favor of a more reliable streaming option, while managers in deeper leagues or tight-end-premium formats can consider holding him if alternatives are scarce, although his reduced receiving role makes a rebound difficult to project. He caught 21 passes for 232 yards and three touchdowns during his productive start but has since managed just five receptions for 23 yards on 10 targets, a decline that coincides with Noah Fant and rookie Oscar Delp becoming more involved in New Orleans' tight-end rotation. The Saints also have their bye in Week 8, further weakening his case for a roster spot.

Dalton Kincaid News
Thursday, October 29, 3:41 PM
Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (chest) was limited for the second straight day in Thursday's practice with a chest injury. There have been no indications that Kincaid's chest injury is serious enough to keep him from playing in Week 8 against the Baltimore Ravens, but unless he upgrades to a full practice on Friday, he could take a questionable tag into the weekend. We think that Kincaid is on the right side of questionable and will be active against the Ravens. If top receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) returns from a two-game absence, it will mean more competition for targets for Kincaid, who really has not done much for his fantasy managers since the first two weeks of the season. The 27-year-old former 25th overall pick from Utah in 2023 caught 12 of his 14 targets for 225 yards and a touchdown in the first two weeks but has just 11 catches on 15 targets for 90 yards and no touchdowns in the last four games. But with bye weeks in full swing in Week 8, Kincaid should remain on the low-end TE1 radar, at the very least, if he is active on Sunday in Buffalo.
