Who Should I Start? Quentin Johnston or Brian Thomas Jr.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston has plenty of upside in a Week 12 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football. Johnston set a new season-high last week with eight targets, tying him for the team lead with Ladd McConkey. McConkey is questionable with a shoulder injury, and while he seems likely to play, Johnston would have even more upside if his fellow wide out were forced to miss the game. Johnston, who plays the perimeter role on the Chargers offense, could have a huge game since the Ravens secondary has allowed the most fantasy points and receiving yards to outside wide receivers. He's a fairly safe WR3 with a lot more upside than most of the guys ranked around him.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. hauled in 5-of-7 targets for 82 yards in the team's 52-6 loss to the Detroit Lions. The rookie wideout was the only Jaguars player to record more than 28 receiving yards on a day when quarterback Mac Jones tossed for 138 yards. His target and reception total tied tight end Evan Engram for the highest marks on the team. BTJ recorded three receptions of at least 20 yards and could have had an even bigger day if a late 33-yard reception wasn't overturned. Despite the woes of the Jags' offense, the sensational 22-year-old continues to perform, though it's worth noting that he did appear to get injured on the overturned reception. Fortunately, he'll get a bye in Week 12 before a divisional clash against the Houston Texans in Week 13.
