Who Should I Start? Juwan Johnson or Harold Fannin Jr.

Tuesday, November 18, 9:51 AM

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson scored in back-to-back games before the team's Week 11 bye, establishing a good connection with former college teammate Tyler Shough. It's been a strong four-game stretch for the 29-year-old, totaling 17 receptions for 255 yards and two touchdowns on 23 targets. With Rashid Shaheed dealt to the Seattle Seahawks at the trade deadline, Johnson has the opportunity to establish himself as the No. 2 target earner behind top wideout Chris Olave. Johnson was the TE2 in PPR points per game (14.2) in the first three weeks of the season before cooling off in the following three contests. However, the Saints' offense is trending up with Shough playing decently well, and Johnson is back on the map as a potential low-end TE1 moving forward. Owned in 35% of ESPN leagues, he is worth adding in 12-team leagues if he is still available.

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr caught two of his five targets for 26 yards in a 23-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11. Fannin's quiet afternoon in the passing game was still good enough for a second-place finish on the Browns in receiving yards, as they only threw for 115 yards as a team. The rookie tight end has been a solid fantasy asset this season, although he has cooled off a bit over his past two games, with just six catches for 70 scoreless yards over that span. He will look to get back into the end zone in Week 12's road matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.
