Theo Johnson A Potential Security Blanket For Rookie QB
New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson is a fantasy non-factor who should remain on waiver wires, but he has a slight chance to gain relevance with a rookie quarterback making his first start. Johnson has been unproductive through three weeks, ranking as the TE42 while averaging a mere 2.63 fantasy points per game on just 10 total targets, despite a high 77.4% snap share. The primary hope is that rookie QB Jaxson Dart leans on him as a security blanket, which could finally boost his target share against a defense allowing the second-most passing yards. Still, he faces a Chargers defense that is tough on tight ends (9.2 FPPG) and is first in red zone touchdown rate, making him a desperation-only play.
