Quentin Johnston Is a Speculative Week 10 Add After First Touchdown

Monday, November 9, 10:09 AM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston scored his first touchdown of the season Sunday, taking a short pass from Justin Herbert 58 yards against Houston. It was his only catch on four targets. Three receptions of at least 44 yards account for 159 of his 260 receiving yards this season. Rostered in 31% of Yahoo leagues, Johnston is worth a low-cost bench claim in 12-team half-PPR leagues that start three receivers. Ladd McConkey (back) was active but never took a snap after experiencing spasms during warmups. Johnston still drew the same four targets he saw with McConkey in the lineup against the Rams a week earlier. Tre' Harris drew a team-high seven targets against Houston after seeing three against the Rams. Harris and Johnston each played 60 offensive snaps on Sunday. Herbert injured the middle finger on his non-throwing hand in the fourth quarter and said he plans to play Monday night at Baltimore. Backup DJ Uiagalelei targeted Harris on two of his seven passes in relief and did not throw to Johnston.

Kayshon Boutte News

Kayshon Boutte Worth Adding After Explosive Outing?

Monday, November 9, 6:14 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Kayshon Boutte has suddenly emerged as an intriguing waiver wire target after he broke out for 125 receiving yards in Week 9. This was the Texans' first game without Jaylin Noel (toe), and it turned out that Boutte was the biggest beneficiary of Noel's targets being up for grabs. This was Boutte's first game with double-digit PPR points this season, so while he's certainly trending up after Week 9, we also acknowledge that he has a lower floor. Still, he's a low-risk target on the waiver wire, with the potential to contribute in a fantasy-relevant role for deeper leagues going forward. In particular, he stands out among the other depth options like Marvin Harrison Jr., who has yet to play more than 50% of the snaps since being traded from Arizona to Houston.
