Who Should I Start? Quentin Johnston or Kyle Williams

Sunday, November 16, 12:53 AM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (shin) is expected to be active for Sunday's meeting with the hosting Jacksonville Jaguars, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Johnston led the team in targets during last weekend's 25-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, simultaneously sustaining a shin injury. Despite starting the week with consecutive limited practices, the TCU product was able to upgrade his status to full on Friday, hinting that he should be good to handle his typical allotment of snaps when they take on the Jags. Johnston has seen his early-season production tail off in recent weeks, though he remains a solid WR3/flex asset with the potential for a big play. If he's unable to suit up, rookie wideout Tre' Harris would be in line for an uptick in snaps behind Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey.

New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams should continue to see more involvement during Thursday Night Football against the New York Jets in Week 11. Williams is coming off a strong outing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in which he posted a season-high (and, thus, career-high) 56 percent snap share. He caught one of two targets in the victory, breaking off an impressive 72-yard touchdown that wound up on numerous highlight reels. While we can't count on the rookie to break off a huge touchdown every week, last Sunday's big play should be enough to earn him more opportunities going forward. His volume will also continue to benefit from the absence of Kayshon Boutte (hamstring), who is headed for his second consecutive absence. Williams still has to compete with players like Stefon Diggs, Mack Hollins, and DeMario Douglas for volume, but he's certainly starting to earn the trust of Drake Maye and New England's coaching staff. Williams is a WR5 with a low floor and high ceiling this week. Managers in most leagues can leave him on the bench until we see him consistently earn more targets.
