Diontae Johnson Week 9 Outlook - Texans at Jets

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 31st 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Johnson follows the same must-sit protocol as previously traded wide receivers this season. With a limited window of opportunity to learn the playbook and build rapport with Lamar Jackson, there's no way to start Johnson with any confidence this week, both from a snap share and target share projection. It's not like this is a wonderful matchup either, where he could still succeed on a limited workload. Denver has allowed the tenth-lowest fantasy points per game and the sixth-fewest receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.
