Who Should I Start? Quentin Johnston or Marvin Mims Jr.

Tuesday, September 2, 6:32 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receivers Quentin Johnston (head) and Tre' Harris (undisclosed) are not listed on the team's Week 1 injury report and were full participants in Tuesday's practice. Johnston suffered a scary concussion in the team's second preseason game in the middle of August against the Los Angeles Rams, but he has since been cleared from the concussion protocol and is on track to play in Friday's season opener in Brazil against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs. The 23-year-old former first-rounder has struggled with drops early in his career and now must battle for playing time with Harris, putting him off the fantasy radar in 12-team fantasy leagues, especially after Keenan Allen rejoined the team. Harris, a second-rounder in April, will play on Friday, but he figures to struggle for volume early on and should be on the bench in deeper leagues.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. (thigh) was listed as a full participant in the team's first official injury report on Wednesday ahead of their Week 1 contest on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, according to Aric DiLalla of DenverBroncos.com. Mims left practice early last Thursday but was able to return to the field on Monday. Barring a setback, the 23-year-old should be just fine for the season opener in Denver this weekend. The former second-rounder became a much bigger part of the Broncos' offense in the second half of last year and finished with 39 receptions on 52 targets for 503 yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (two starts). Mims is lined up to open the year as the WR2 behind Courtland Sutton, but tight end Evan Engram, rookie receiver Pat Bryant and Troy Franklin will all be vying for targets. Mims is a boom/bust WR5/flex in deeper fantasy leagues.
