Who Should I Start? Michael Woods II or Brandon Johnson

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Michael Woods II (knee) is dealing with a knee issue and is considered questionable for the Week 18 matchup with the Baltimore Ravens. The second-year wideout started seeing some playing time through the last five games and even registered a snap share of 86% in their game against the Dolphins. He has yet to post a finish better than WR56 in half-PPR formats, so he's not a recommended play if he does suit up. If he's sidelined, however, it could mean some more targets for Elijah Moore.

The Denver Broncos waived wide receiver Brandon Johnson on Tuesday, according to a source. In addition to Johnson, the Broncos also parted ways with Tim Patrick, who quickly signed with the Detroit Lions, Lil'Jordan Humphrey and David Sills to trim their roster down to 53 by the deadline. Johnson improved in Year 2 with Denver last year by catching 19 of his 30 targets for 284 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games (two starts), but he wasn't able to make the final cut this summer after the offseason additions of Josh Reynolds and rookie fourth-rounder Troy Franklin. The 26-year-old rejoin the Broncos practice squad to give the team additional depth during the regular season, though. Johnson joined Denver as an undrafted free agent out of Central Florida in 2022.
