Who Should I Start? Tutu Atwell or Quentin Johnston

Saturday, September 6, 2:23 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell enters the season listed third on the depth chart, which likely leaves him off the fantasy radar for the time being. Although this week's matchup against the Houston Texans is enticing for receivers specifically, Atwell's volume will likely be impacted by the presence of Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, two star pass-catchers who could each command at least 10 targets. Atwell figures to be the primary deep threat option in Los Angeles, which means that he will have some big plays and touchdowns, but he'll also have his fair share of dud games. As long as he's in the No. 3 role, it will be too difficult to predict when those boom or bust games will happen. For now, he can be left on waivers in most leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston put up a big performance in Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs, recording five catches for 79 yards and two touchdowns. Johnston is a priority waiver-wire pickup for fantasy managers heading into his Week 2 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. The 24-year-old has been an inconsistent player through his first two-plus NFL seasons, but he's still a former first-round pick with high-upside physical traits. With 10 touchdowns in his last 16 games played, Johnston has also proven to be a solid end-zone target for Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert. Johnston should be added in all fantasy leagues with 10 or more teams.
