Who Should I Start? Juwan Johnson or Theo Johnson

Saturday, November 29, 1:27 PM

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson has quietly put together a strong campaign in 2025. Over the last five games, Johnson has finished with 46 receiving yards or more in four of them. During that span, Johnson has also hauled in 23 receptions with two touchdowns. The 29-year-old has been a solid second option in the passing game behind Chris Olave. Given his consistent success, Johnson figures to remain a focal point in this passing game. He should continue to succeed against a suspect Miami Dolphins defense in Week 13. Fantasy managers should be able to plug in Johnson as a TE1 for this weekend.

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson has ridden the fantasy roller coaster so far this season. Since Week 4, Johnson has been an inconsistent fantasy option, finishing inside the Top-12 five times and finishing outside the Top-20 four times. The 24-year-old will see a decent matchup heading into Week 13 against the New England Patriots. The Patriots' defense has allowed the fifth-fewest rushing yards and the 10th most passing touchdowns this season. With a tough run defense, the Giants' offense could be forced to go to a pass-heavy game script early to sustain drives. This, along with Johnson's red zone presence against a struggling red zone passing defense, could work in his favor. It is worth noting that the Giants will be getting Jaxson Dart back after missing two games due to a concussion. The stars seem to be aligning for Johnson to be a viable TE2 with a good chance to score his first touchdown since Week 9.
