Who Should I Start? Tim Patrick or Quentin Johnston

Tuesday, December 9, 2:02 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Tim Patrick had five receptions for 78 yards and a touchdown on six targets during Sunday's win over the division-rival Indianapolis Colts. Patrick posted season-best marks in catches and yards while scoring his third touchdown of the year. The 32-year-old wideout saw an uptick in snaps with Parker Washington (hip) out of the lineup, playing 65.6% of the offensive snaps, his second-highest mark of the season. Patrick was acquired by the Jaguars from the Detroit Lions before the start of the regular season, and while he hasn't played a massive role, he's earned at least four targets in three of the past four games. Patrick still profiles as more of a deep-league option, but that could change if he stacks another performance like this. He'll be worth considering as a deep-league flex play in Week 15 against the New York Jets if Washington misses another game.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs in Week 15. Johnston was a late addition to the injury report on Friday this week with a groin injury and will now sit out this weekend. The 24-year-old will try to get right for the team's Week 16 matchup against the Cowboys in Dallas next Sunday. With Johnston sidelined, there will be more targets to go around for Ladd McConkey and Keenan Allen, and rookie Oronde Gadsden. Rookie receiver Tre' Harris will also have an expanded role in the Chargers' passing game as the WR3 against a tough Chiefs defense. Johnston got off to a roaring start in 2025 with four touchdowns in the first four games, but he has only scored twice since Nov. 2 and has gone over 50 receiving yards just once since Sept. 28.
