New York Jets wide receiver Tyler Johnson won't be on the fantasy radar for his team's home matchup in Week 7 with the Carolina Panthers. Johnson is set to rack up extra playing time this weekend, with teammate Garrett Wilson (knee) expected to miss the outing with a knee injury. Despite the increased involvement, Johnson can't be trusted by owners to supply viable fantasy production, as he's compiled just four receptions on seven targets (63 yards) across five appearances in the campaign. With Wilson on the mend, a majority of the vacated targets should go to fellow WR Josh Reynolds, while running back Breece Hall and rookie tight end Mason Taylor figure to absorb the rest. Outside of desperation, Johnson isn't in play, coming in as RotoBaller's PPR WR96 ahead of Week 7.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson returned to the Packers' lineup in Week 8 following an ACL injury that ended his 2024 season in Week 18. Watson was an immediate focal point of the offense in his 2025 debut, bringing in all four of his targets for 85 yards. The big question: can Watson be a fantasy-relevant player this season? While it was great to see Watson back and receive immediate involvement in the passing game, he's still behind Tucker Kraft, Romeo Doubs, and Josh Jacobs in the pecking order on offense. Watson's game has always been as a vertical receiver, and for fantasy, those types of players are boom-or-bust in nature. That makes it hard to start him in most weeks, even with bye weeks in full swing. For the Packers' Week 9 matchup against the Panthers, consider Watson a low-end flex play.
