Who Should I Start? Theo Johnson or Tyler Warren

Saturday, November 15, 10:23 AM

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson should earn increased opportunities in Week 11 with wide receiver Darius Slayton (hamstring) sidelined. Johnson will likely serve as Jameis Winston's No. 2 target behind Wan'Dale Robinson on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. He occupied a similar role last week; as Slayton missed part of the game due to injury, Johnson stepped up with a 97 percent snap share, eight targets, seven catches, and 75 yards. He has emerged as the overall TE13 in PPR leagues during his second pro season, and he has a good chance at cracking the top-12 with his increased workload this week. Managers should feel very comfortable starting Johnson, especially against a Packers defense allowing the seventh-most receptions and ninth-most touchdowns to opposing tight ends in 2025.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren caught eight of his 10 targets for 99 yards during Sunday's Week 10 victory against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin. The rookie set season-highs (and, thus, career-highs) in all three statistical categories on Sunday. He continues to be one of Daniel Jones' favorite targets, making a huge 23-yard catch to get the Colts in scoring position during overtime Sunday, among other key plays. Warren will enjoy a Week 11 bye before returning to action against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12. He should continue to be started as a high-end TE1 in fantasy football.
