Who Should I Start? Noah Brown or Quentin Johnston

Friday, September 5, 6:53 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown has been managing a knee injury that he sustained back during training camp and is currently listed as questionable for Week 1's matchup against the Giants. Brown was limited in practice both Wednesday and Thursday before showing up as a DNP in practice on Friday. Head coach Dan Quinn labeled it as a rest day for the veteran receiver and that he should be good to go on Sunday. Brown signed in Washington following being waived by the Texans during roster cuts and ended up signing a one-year extension after carving out a role as their second outside receiver. He led the team in total receiving yards in the two games against the Giants last season, catching nine passes for 116 yards. Brown again projects to be the team's primary outside wide receiver opposite Terry McLaurin, but likely won't be relevant for fantasy purposes against the Giants.

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.
