Who Should I Start? Malik Cunningham or Kameron Johnson

Tuesday, January 21, 9:50 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Malik Cunningham has signed a reserve/future deal to stay with the organization in 2025. Cunningham spent the entire 2024 campaign on the practice squad, but he'll get a chance to earn a spot on the 53-man roster during training camp. The Louisville product started his pro career as a quarterback, but has transitioned to a wideout with the Ravens. He played briefly with the New England Patriots before joining the Ravens roster. There is plenty of untapped potential here due to Cunningham's speed and the fact he played quarterback in college. Hopefully, the Ravens find a way to get him involved in their 2025 gameplan.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Kameron Johnson came out of nowhere and had a solid game versus the San Francisco 49ers last week. Johnson hauled in all four of his targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in the win. Normally, Johnson is a distant option on the depth chart, but the Bucs are extremely banged up right now. They could be without Mike Evans (hamstring) and Emeka Egbuka (hamstring) for Monday's game against the Detroit Lions. If they sit, Johnson, Sterling Shepard, and Tez Johnson would be the primary wideouts. The organization praised Johnson after his four-catch performance last weekend. He figures to have an expanded role if Evans and Egbuka are unable to go. There could be some flex value here for fantasy managers who are desperate for an option this weekend.
