Tez Johnson News
Friday, October 30, 11:46 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tez Johnson was able to find the end zone for the first time this season last week. Johnson was forced into a bigger role with Emeka Egbuka (ankle, concussion) sidelined against the Carolina Panthers. The 24-year-old hauled in both of his targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in the blowout victory. The expectation is that Johnson will once again see more time on the field this weekend with Egbuka out for the second straight game. The Bucs are expected to pass the ball more in Week 8 against the struggling Atlanta Falcons defense. A unit that currently ranks 29th against the pass coming into this Week 8 contest. Johnson has big-play ability, but he isn't someone that is going to draw a ton of targets. Fantasy managers should view Johnson as a touchdown-dependent option against the Falcons this weekend.

Germie Bernard News
Friday, November 13, 3:42 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Germie Bernard was relatively quiet in Weeks 7 and 8 after breaking out in Week 6, but he'll look to get back on track following the team's Week 9 bye. His first opportunity to do so comes against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals in a primetime matchup on Sunday Night Football. Cincinnati ranks middle-of-the-pack against fantasy receivers this season, but its pass defense has been subpar overall and particularly vulnerable to production from the slot. The Bengals surrender the second-most fantasy points per game to slot receivers, where Bernard lines up nearly 50% of the time. Pittsburgh's receiver room remains thin due to injuries to Roman Wilson (finger) and Michael Pittman Jr. (foot), so Bernard should see plenty of playing time alongside DK Metcalf, even with Ben Skowronek (calf) back in the mix. Assuming the Steelers need to throw to keep pace with Cincinnati's high-powered passing attack, Bernard carries some upside into this matchup and is worth considering as a WR3 or flex option in most formats.
