Juwan Johnson vs. Pittsburgh: Looking to Rebound in Paris
Juwan Johnson maintains his role atop the Saints' tight end depth chart ahead of Noah Fant, though he is coming off a quiet, zero-catch performance against the Giants. Despite that recent speedbump, Johnson has been a trusted red-zone asset for quarterback Tyler Shough this season, already finding the end zone three times through six games.
Currently rostered in 94% of fantasy leagues but started in just 52%, fantasy managers should view Johnson as a viable streaming option with low-end TE1 appeal. Our projections forecast a bounce-back effort with approximately 4 receptions for 40 receiving yards and 11.2 fantasy points, offering reliable value if New Orleans leans on his intermediate route running.

Omar Cooper vs. MIA: Emerging Rookie Playmaker Poised for Expanded Role
Cooper returned emphatically from his multi-week ankle injury, hauling in six passes on seven targets for 103 yards and a 48-yard touchdown. Operating as the starting slot receiver on the depth chart, his recent breakout has sparked fantasy interest, vaulting his roster percentage up to 29%.
While our models project a modest 3.2 fantasy points with around 15 receiving yards against Miami, his explosive playmaking ability provides sneaky upside. In a divisional matchup with a low 39-point total, he profiles as a high-upside stash and viable flex option whose weekly target share should continue to expand.
