Quentin Johnston Quiet Again in Week 3 Loss

Monday, September 28, 7:49 AM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston had another quiet afternoon in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Buffalo Bills, catching three of six targets for 40 yards. He did have a season-high 21-yard reception, but the bigger moment came late in the fourth quarter when he dropped a third-down pass with Los Angeles still trying to stay in the game. Johnston was not short on playing time, either. He played 60 of the Chargers' 69 offensive snaps and ran a route on 37 of Justin Herbert's 43 dropbacks. Tre' Harris was more productive on fewer snaps, catching six of seven targets for 76 yards. Johnston now has six catches for 64 yards on 17 targets through three games and has yet to score. The role is still there, but the production has not followed, and Harris' strong showing gives the Chargers another receiver who can push for more work.

Michael Wilson Peppered with 17 Targets in Loss to 49ers

Sunday, September 27, 8:20 PM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson caught 11 of his 17 targets for 89 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 3 loss against the San Francisco 49ers. This was the second-highest target total of Wilson's career, and it led to an impressive 25.9-point performance in PPR leagues. Interestingly, Wilson now has 35 targets over his last two games against the 49ers. He has been the Cardinals' clear-cut top receiver so far, finishing with more targets, catches, yards, and touchdowns than Marvin Harrison Jr. in all three games this season. We don't expect to see Wilson get 17 targets and 11 catches every week, but this performance reinforced the idea that the Cardinals will try to feed him the football whenever they're trailing. He's worth starting in most leagues against the Giants next week.
