Who Should I Start? Quentin Johnston or Isaiah Bond

Sunday, October 12, 11:48 AM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for the Week 6 road contest against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Johnston was limited in practice from Wednesday through Friday and will sit out for the first time this year. It comes after his worst performance of the year in the Week 5 loss to the Washington Commanders, when he caught all four of his targets for a season-low 40 yards. Johnston will continue to be involved in L.A.'s passing attack all year, though, and he already has four touchdowns in five games in 2025. His next chance to play will come in Week 7 against the Indianapolis Colts. With Johnston sidelined this weekend, both Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey should see an increase in targets in a great matchup against the Dolphins' struggling defense. Rookie Tre' Harris should operate in the No. 3 role for the Bolts.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Isaiah Bond has slowly been earning a larger role in his team's offense as the season has gone on. The rookie wideout set a season high in Week 5 with seven targets while playing 57.1% of the offensive snaps in a 21-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. He will now turn his attention to a Week 6 road matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Pittsburgh represents a great matchup for Bond as they are allowing the seventh-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts through four games. Bond may overtake Jerry Jeudy as the team's No. 1 receiver sooner rather than later and should be rostered in deeper fantasy leagues. He checks in as a WR4/flex option in fantasy in Week 6.
