Ravens plan a bigger role for WR Diontae Johnson

Nov 11, 2024

The Ravens added wide receiver Diontae Johnson and running back Keaton Mitchell to the offensive mix over the last couple of weeks and they have eyes on expanding both of their roles in Week 11 and beyond.

Johnson played five snaps last Thursday and caught one pass for six yards in the 35-34 win over the Bengals. Johnson played 17 snaps in his first game after being acquired in a trade with the Panthers and head coach John Harbaugh said he’s in line for more work against the Steelers.

Fantasy Impact:

Harbaugh said the team plans to ramp up Johnson for this week's game against the Steelers. Those owning Johnson in fantasy may want to take the wait-and-see approach, however, before putting Johnson back into their lineups. We reported on Mitchell's potential increase in work in another news story here on our site.

Jets WR Davante Adams misses Wednesday practice with illness and wrist soreness

Davante Adams is not practicing today, Ulbrich said. He has an illness and some wrist soreness.

Fantasy Impact:

Adams took 13 targets for 31 yards last week, which is definitely enough to make anyone feel ill. He now has 206 yards on 38 targets over his Jets tenure, for a cool 5.42 yards per target. He's definitely getting the volume, but should be considered a moderate WR2 if he suits up.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence Out, Mac Jones In for Week 11

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) is out again this week, per coach Doug Pederson. Mac Jones starts again at Detroit.

Fantasy Impact:

In Mac Jones' first start, the Jaguars managed only 7 points while the quarterback took 22 pass attempts to reach a 111-0-2 stat line. This is a downgrade to all Jaguars pass-catchers, while Jones is unplayable in fantasy lineups.

Panthers RB Miles Sanders day-to-day with foot/ankle injury

Panthers RB Miles Sanders, who was carted off with a foot/ankle injury in Germany, is considered day-to-day after extensive tests and a visit with an expert, sources say.

They want the swelling to go down, and he could miss a little time. But as of now, not considered major.

Related Players: Chuba Hubbard, Jonathon Brooks

Fantasy Impact:

Even with the Panthers Week 11 bye week, it's hard to envision much of a role for Sanders moving forward, with Brooks slated to become a part of the offense after the bye. Even if Brooks doesn't see the field, Sanders shouldn't be held on any fantasy rosters right now.
