Quentin Johnston

Week 16 vs Denver Broncos

In a string twist of fate, Quentin Johnston actually led the Chargers in targets against the Buccaneers with 10. He tied Ladd McConkey and Stone Smartt with catches (5), but had the fewest yards of the trio with 45 yards. He also added a touchdown, but the usage was much better this week.

Johnston goes up against a Denver secondary that was much more formidable earlier in the season and now sit at 23rd aFPA against wide receivers. While the matchup isn't to be avoided, it's likely Johnston will see more Pat Surtain as he looks to return this week. Johnston is a desperation flex play this week.

Week 13 at Atlanta Falcons

5 targets for 0 catches in Week 12 for Quentin Johnston is not at all what anyone wants to see for fantasy. It was a brutal showing for Johnston after some solid outings earlier in the season that might have been turning his career around. Instead, it was a myriad of drops.

Thankfully for Johnston, the Falcons are 32nd aFPA against wide receivers this season. It's a great matchup, but as long as he continues to just be a deep threat on jump balls, it's going to be rough sledding every week he doesn't score a touchdown. Johnston is back-end flex option and should only be considered if you're desperate.

Week 10 vs. Tennessee Titans

The big plays continue to come every week for Quentin Johnston with one of the biggest turnarounds from Year 1 to Year 2 in recent memory. As a deep threat, he's never going to project great on just a few targets, but as he proved again last week on 5 targets he had 4 catches for 118 yards and a touchdown.

The Titans are 3rd aFPA against wide receivers this year so the ceiling is a little bit lower this week, but the big plays can still be had for Johnston. He's more of a flex option this week if you have a normal starter on bye, but you'll be hoping for a long touchdown.
