Who Should I Start? Tyler Johnson or Chris Olave

Wednesday, November 12, 8:56 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Tyler Johnson is due for an elevated workload in Week 11's road clash with the New England Patriots. The sixth-year pro notched back-to-back three-catch efforts ahead of his bye week, posting at least 60 yards in each contest, although he failed to reel in his lone target in last weekend's win over the Browns, while Justin Fields netted 42 passing yards. Things won't be much easier against their division rivals, considering New England has allowed the sixth-fewest points (19.2) and eighth-fewest yards (306.2) per game. Johnson might be an ok flier in DFS formats, but shouldn't be on fantasy managers' radars in conventional lineup leagues. Even with the suspected uptick in volume, an up-and-down Jets' offense limits the 27-year-old's ceiling. He'll wind up as RotoBaller's PPR WR77 for his outing with the Patriots.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (back) is officially questionable to play in his team's Week 13 matchup against the Miami Dolphins due to a back injury. Olave was a limited practice participant on Friday due to the ailment after being held out of practice completely on Thursday. Across 11 games this season, the 25-year-old has hauled in 69 catches for 734 yards and four touchdowns on 108 targets. If unable to go in Week 13, Saints tight end Juwan Johnson might be the team's leading target earner against Miami, while wide receivers Devaughn Vele and Mason Tipton would likely both see an uptick in playing time. Should Olave be able to play, he's a good bet for double-digit targets and profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in PPR formats.
