Who Should I Start? Quentin Johnston or Xavier Legette

Tuesday, November 18, 12:19 AM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston had no catches on three targets in Sunday's 35-6 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. It was his second game with zero catches this season, but the entire offense struggled throughout the game. The Chargers only ran 45 plays, possessed the ball for 22 minutes, gained just 135 yards, and reached the red zone once. Justin Herbert threw for only 81 yards, giving Johnston minimal opportunities to make an impact. It's a game to move past, though the inconsistency is starting to become a pattern. With the Bolts heading into a much-needed Week 12 bye, Johnston gets a necessary reset before returning as a high-risk, high-reward WR3 for the final stretch of the fantasy season.

Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales said on Monday that the way that quarterback Bryce Young spread the ball around to so many of the team's wide receivers on Sunday in the overtime win over the Atlanta Falcons "happened organically." However, Canales also said there was a "focused effort" to get Xavier Legette more targets. The 24-year-old saw eight targets in Week 11 after having only one target the week before. His eight targets against the Falcons were the second-most he's had this season. Legette caught half of those targets for 83 yards and his third touchdown of the year in the 30-27 victory. He'll be a waiver-wire target this week after his big game, but fantasy managers will want to monitor his status going into Week 12 against the San Francisco 49ers after he left the game late with a hip injury. Other than his performance on Sunday, Legette has only one game with more than 31 receiving yards.
