Who Should I Start? Parris Campbell or Kameron Johnson

Tuesday, September 30, 6:06 PM

The Dallas Cowboys have signed veteran wide receiver Parris Campbell to their practice squad, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Campbell, a former second-round pick, has battled through multiple significant foot and knee injuries throughout his six-year career, limiting him to 1,117 receiving yards and six touchdowns across 49 games. The Cowboys are dealing with injuries at wide receiver, most notably losing CeeDee Lamb for the next few weeks and Jonathan Mingo, who was placed on injured reserve prior to the season. Campbell could be elevated from the practice squad as soon as this week, but with the Cowboys' deep receiver group, he carries little to no fantasy value at this time.

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.
