Tyler Johnson Fantasy

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tyler Johnson could have sleeper appeal in Week 10 against Washington. Johnson has bounced between special-teams play and backup duties on offense but has seen a jump in playing time with Antonio Brown (ankle) missing the last two games, as he has played at least 60 percent of the snaps while totaling eight catches for 81 yards in those contests. The Minnesota product could be playing in three-receiver sets with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin (foot), or he could operate as the team's number-two wideout if Godwin can't go. Either way, Johnson is in line to see more opportunities against a leaky Washington secondary. They've allowed the second-most fantasy points per game to wideouts this season, meaning Johnson could enter the flex conversation this week.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tyler Johnson filled in nicely for the injured Antonio Brown (ankle) in Sunday's loss to the Saints. Johnson set season-highs in receptions and yards, even breaking off a big play, a 31-yard reception. The 23-year-old will head back to a bench role after the team's Week 9 bye- with Brown expected to make his return the following week against Washington. Johnson did show that he can have fantasy value when an injury occurs in the Buccaneers' wideout room.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tyler Johnson finished with three receptions for 63 yards on six targets in Sunday's loss to Los Angeles. With Antonio Brown out for this game due to being on the COVID list, Johnson stepped up and delivered a solid performance. It's worth noting the WR had only five total receiving yards on the season before this game and will be pushed back down the depth chart once Brown returns, so he's not fantasy-relevant at this moment.
