Collin Johnson News
New York Giants wide receiver Collin Johnson could have an expanded role in Sunday's matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Giants WRs Sterling Shepard (hamstring) and Darius Slayton (hamstring) have been unable to practice this week, putting their status in serious jeopardy for Week 4. Johnson caught 5-of-7 targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The 24-year-old tied running back Saquon Barkley with seven targets for the team lead in Week 3. Rookie Kadarius Toney is expected to play the slot while Kenny Golladay will be shadowed by Saints star corner Marshon Lattimore. Johnson would be the team's No.3 option. The Saints have been burned by WR3s and are 30th in DVOA against them this season. Johnson will be a boom-or-bust flex in deep-league formats if both Shepard and Slayton cannot suit up.
New York Giants wide receiver Collin Johnson caught 5-of-7 targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. He tied running back Saquon Barkley with seven targets for the team lead in Week 3. The Giants lost wide receivers Sterling Shepard (hamstring) and Darius Slayton (hamstring) to hamstring injuries. Johnson could see a significant boost in fantasy value if Slayton and Shepard are sidelined for an extended time. The 24-year-old is a name to monitor in deep-league formats. Johnson, Kadarius Toney, and Kenny Golladay are currently the Giants' only healthy wide receivers.
The Jacksonville Jaguars announced that they waived wide receiver Collin Johnson on Tuesday. Johnson's release comes as a surprise, as he seemed likely to make the team before the announcement due to his strong camp and the lack of other options after the team also waived Laquon Treadwell and released Phillip Dorsett II. Johnson is still a promising young wideout at 6-foot-6 222 pounds, and he's likely to be picked up by another club in the coming days. Johnson's release could foreshadow a coming wide receiver addition, but as of right now journeymen Tavon Austin and Jamal Agnew are set to battle for fourth wide receiver duties. Johnson excels in the red zone, and he has an outside shot at carving out a fantasy-relevant role this season if he lands with the right team following his departure from Jacksonville.
