Jaylin Noel vs. Giants — Explosive Efficiency Faces Crowded Target Tree

Noel has emerged as an explosive weapon over the past two weeks, hauling in all nine of his targets for 148 yards and two touchdowns while ranking among the league leaders in yards per route run. However, Houston's wide receiver room is increasingly crowded following the trade for Marvin Harrison Jr. and Tank Dell returning to full practice participation, keeping Noel in a rotational role behind Dell in the slot.

Fantasy managers have taken notice—his roster rate surged up to 33%—yet our projections anticipate a modest stat line of roughly two receptions for 24 yards. With Houston favored by double digits at home, game flow could limit pass volume, leaving Noel as a high-risk, boom-or-bust deep league option.

Outlook Juwan Johnson

Juwan Johnson vs PIT — Streaming Appeal in Paris Matchup

Johnson remains New Orleans' primary tight end, though his weekly volume cooled off recently after totaling just four catches for 16 yards over his past two outings. With quarterback Tyler Shough cleared to play after logging full practices, Johnson continues to command the top tight end role for an offense needing passing weapons.

Our projections anticipate around 4.2 receptions, 40 receiving yards, and 11.2 fantasy points against the Steelers. Fantasy manager trust has slipped recently with his start rate falling to 43%, but he remains a viable matchup-dependent streamer who offers TE1 upside whenever New Orleans looks his way near the goal line.
