Quentin Johnston Scores Twice In A Week 2 Win

Sunday, September 15, 5:09 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston scored two touchdowns in a Week 2 win over the Carolina Panthers. Johnston led the team in targets, catches, yards, and scores in the easy win. He was targeted six times, making five catches for 51 yards and the two touchdowns. His first score came from 29 yards out in the first quarter and he followed it up with another touchdown in the second quarter from five yards out. The Chargers only attempted 20 passes compared to 44 rush attempts, and that looks like the pattern they'll follow most of the time going forward. Johnston could finally be working his way into fantasy relevance, but the Chargers pass catchers will be hard to project each week.

Rashid Shaheed Scores Again In Win

Sunday, September 15, 10:32 PM

New Orleans Saints third-year receiver Rashid Shaheed has been all "boom" so far this season, as he has now scored long touchdowns in back-to-back weeks. The explosive playmaker caught all four of his targets for 96 yards and a touchdown in the Week 2 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He also rushed the ball three times for 13 yards. Shaheed's 25% target share was promising, especially after tying for the team lead in targets a week ago. If the speedster continues to see a consistent target share, he will become a more reliable week-to-week starter in fantasy. Shaheed will look to continue his hot streak next week against Philadelphia.
