Who Should I Start? Quentin Johnston or Jalen Coker

Monday, November 10, 5:37 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston led the team with 10 targets on Sunday night, catching five passes for 42 yards in the 25-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Although his stat line wasn't eye-popping, the volume is encouraging. His longest catch was only 15 yards, as a heavily pressured Justin Herbert mainly relied on quick throws behind a battered offensive line all night. In Week 11, Johnston faces a favorable matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars, who have allowed the ninth-most passing yards and the fourth-most receiving touchdowns this season. They have also given up 31 receptions of 20 yards or more, which could benefit Johnston. With rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden (quad) day-to-day, Johnston could see more red-zone and deep-shot targets. He remains a boom-or-bust WR3/FLEX option with upside in this matchup.

Jalen Coker might be worth consideration for fantasy lineups in Week 10 against the Saints. The second-year wide receiver has not been an effective fantasy performer so far in 2025, as he has only 45 receiving yards in three games played. On Friday's injury report, though, top Carolina WR Tetairoa McMillan was listed as limited in practice due to a hamstring injury and is now questionable to start in Week 10. If McMillan is out, Coker might see an increased target share as a quality contributor in the Panthers' passing attack. The Saints have been vulnerable to WRs in the last four weeks, giving up 34.73 fantasy points against the position, which ranks 25th-most among all NFL teams. Fantasy players should monitor McMillan's status, and if he is unable to play, Coker becomes a possible flex option in Week 10. Coker did show some promise late last season and may produce quality fantasy totals in a favorable matchup.
