Should I Start Tez Johnson?

Wednesday, May 27, 8:59 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tez Johnson has produced when given the opportunity, but he could face an uphill battle to earn playing time going forward. The Bucs have control of Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin Jr., and Jalen McMillan through at least 2027, leaving Johnson in the No. 4 role (at best) for several years to come. There were times in the past when the Buccaneers supported three fantasy-relevant receivers at once, but the passing offense took a step backward last year, so we're not as bullish about the unit's upside going forward. That continues to leave Johnson in more of a depth role, where his outlook is dependent on both the state of the offense and injuries to his teammates. As it stands, Johnson ranks as the WR105 in RotoBalller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.
