Who Should I Start? Lil'Jordan Humphrey or Tez Johnson

Saturday, October 25, 2:39 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey has appeared in two games this season, recording four catches for 55 yards on 10 targets. All four of his catches and eight of his targets came in Week 6 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Humphrey and the Giants will face Philadelphia for the second time in three weeks in Week 8. However, New York will have wide receiver Darius Slayton back on the field after Slayton missed Week 6 due to a hamstring injury. Slayton's return to the lineup appears likely to relegate Humphrey to a minimal role in the Giants' offense. Humphrey does not project to provide fantasy-relevant production in Week 8 and should be avoided by fantasy managers.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tez Johnson has been a solid red zone threat for this offense recently. Johnson has scored three touchdowns over his last three games. Sadly, the yardage hasn't been there as Johnson has been held to 42 yards or fewer in two of his last three games. It's also worth noting that quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is banged up coming into this game. It's unclear how well Mayfield is going to be able to pass this weekend. Fellow wideout Chris Godwin should see a larger role this weekend after being eased back into action last week. Johnson has decent upside, but should be viewed as a touchdown-dependent option for the Week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
