Who Should I Start? Tim Patrick or Quentin Johnston

Wednesday, August 27, 8:07 AM

The Jacksonville Jaguars have acquired veteran wide receiver Tim Patrick from the Detroit Lions in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The 31-year-old recorded 33 catches for 394 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games with Detroit last year. The Lions' decision to move on from Patrick signals an internal belief in third-round rookie Isaac TeSlaa, who was a standout performer in the preseason. In Jacksonville, Patrick will likely step into the team's WR3 role next to Brian Thomas Jr. and Travis Hunter. He should remain off the radar of fantasy managers.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston looked like the team's top receiver to begin the year, but he's cooled off considerably in recent weeks and heads into the team's bye in Week 12 after putting up a donut on just three targets in the Week 11 blowout loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. It was the second time in the last four games that he finished with no catches. The 24-year-old former first-rounder out of TCU does have six touchdown grabs in 10 games in 2025, but half of those came in the first two weeks of the season. Since Oct. 5, Johnston hasn't gone over 53 receiving yards in a game and has scored only twice. With a banged-up offensive line in L.A., Johnston's rest-of-season outlook could be rough. The Bolts have a plus matchup coming out of the bye against the Raiders in Week 13, but after that, they have the Eagles, Texans, Chiefs, and Broncos -- all difficult matchups.
