Tyler Johnson to Act as Jets' WR1?

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.

Jonathan Mingo News

Jonathan Mingo Activated From Injured Reserve on Tuesday

Tuesday, October 21, 4:59 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jonathan Mingo (knee) was officially activated from the Injured Reserve to the active 53-man roster on Tuesday, according to Patrik Walker of DallasCowboys.com. Mingo will be eligible to make his 2025 debut this Sunday on the road against the Denver Broncos in Week 8, and he'll be joining a crowded Dallas WR room that also includes CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Tolbert, and Ryan Flournoy. The 24-year-old will give the Cowboys even more depth at the position, but it's highly unlikely he's going to suddenly appear on the fantasy radar anytime soon. The former second-round pick by the Carolina Panthers in 2023 out of Ole Miss joined the Cowboys midway through last season and had only five receptions on 16 targets for 46 yards and no touchdowns in eight games (one start).
