Who Should I Start? Will Dissly or Juwan Johnson

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly (knee) was listed as a DNP in Wednesday's practice, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic. Dissly did not play in their Week 3 win over the Broncos, and that opened the door for rookie Oronde Gadsden to emerge and potentially become a big piece moving forward. Gadsden was active and saw playing time for the first time in his career, and he earned seven targets, catching five for 46 yards. Dissly's snap count is certainly in danger when he returns as head coach. Jim Harbaugh has already indicated that Gadsden will see more work. Dissly had a productive season last year, but he isn't as talented a receiver as Tyler Conklin and Gadsden. He likely won't have fantasy relevance anytime soon, and the injury doesn't help things.

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson has been one of the biggest fantasy surprises to start the season, ranking as the No. 2 tight end in PPR scoring through the first two weeks. He has totaled 13 receptions for 125 yards and a touchdown on 20 targets from quarterback Spencer Rattler. Johnson could see another busy day against the Seahawks, who have allowed 108 yards and two touchdowns to tight ends through their first two games. He is ranked as the No. 7 tight end on RotoBaller and remains a strong TE1 option.
