Who Should I Start? Nick Westbrook-Ikhine or Quentin Johnston

Saturday, September 6, 10:05 AM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine came to Miami this past offseason on a two-year, $6.5 million contract, but he doesn't look like he'll be very involved in Week 1. Westbrook-Ikhine showed a nose for the end zone in his five seasons in Tennessee and had nine touchdowns last year on just 32 catches for 497 yards. He's a big red-zone target that could emerge as a goal-line favorite for Tua Tagovailoa, but he doesn't have a clear path to a role coming into the year. One potential spot he could step into would be to fill in for Darren Waller (hip), since the Dolphins don't have any obvious pass-catching options at tight end. He's a long shot to be involved, though, so Westbrook-Ikhine is the WR99 coming into the week in the RotoBaller rankings, since he's behind at least Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Malik Washington in the Dolphins' receiver room.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston put up a big performance in Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs, recording five catches for 79 yards and two touchdowns. Johnston is a priority waiver-wire pickup for fantasy managers heading into his Week 2 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. The 24-year-old has been an inconsistent player through his first two-plus NFL seasons, but he's still a former first-round pick with high-upside physical traits. With 10 touchdowns in his last 16 games played, Johnston has also proven to be a solid end-zone target for Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert. Johnston should be added in all fantasy leagues with 10 or more teams.
