Tyler Johnson Elevated from Practice Squad

Saturday, September 6, 7:00 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Tyler Johnson was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday. Johnson failed to make the 53-man roster and was added to the practice squad. Now, Johnson will be elevated to the active roster ahead of the Week 1 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Last season, Johnson hauled in 26 receptions for 291 receiving yards and one touchdown across 15 games with the Los Angeles Rams. He'll provide depth to the wide receiver room, but is unlikely to make a significant impact during Sunday's game. Johnson can be avoided in fantasy formats for the moment.

Efton Chism III Avoids Injury Report Wednesday

Wednesday, September 3, 11:40 PM

New England Patriots wide receiver Efton Chism III (knee) was listed as a full participant on the team's official injury report following practice on Wednesday. The undrafted rookie injured himself during Week 2 of the preseason, but it appears as though he'll be healthy enough to suit up in the Patriots' season opener against the Las Vegas Raiders this weekend. While Chism flashed pure talent during the preseason, he'll still need to earn opportunities throughout the regular season. For now, he's a lower-volume option near the bottom of the depth chart. He can be avoided in redraft leagues and stashed in deeper dynasty formats.
