Outlook Roschon Johnson
Roschon Johnson at Seattle — Modest Backup Role Caps Fantasy Value
Roschon Johnson enters Monday night's road matchup against Seattle functioning as Chicago's primary backup behind D'Andre Swift, with Kyle Monangai ruled out due to thumb and toe injuries. While Monangai's absence secures Johnson's place in the rotation, his touches remain strictly managed after he handled just two rush attempts for 13 yards in Chicago's last outing.
Our weekly projection forecasts Johnson for roughly six carries, 21 rushing yards, and a single reception, adding up to 5.3 fantasy points in an expected 46.5-point game environment. Currently rostered in only 13% of leagues and started in 1%, Johnson profiles as a touchdown-dependent depth piece best left on fantasy benches in standard formats.

Dylan Sampson at Pittsburgh: Change-of-Pace Value in Low-Scoring Divisional Clash
After returning from injured reserve, Dylan Sampson immediately stepped into the primary change-of-pace role behind Quinshon Judkins. In his return against Tennessee, Sampson was efficient with 45 rushing yards on six carries and three receptions for 32 yards. With Raheim Sanders on injured reserve, Sampson is solidified as the clear number two back in Cleveland's offense.
Our weekly projection tabs Sampson for about 4.5 carries, 2.1 receptions, and 6.6 fantasy points in Pittsburgh. This divisional matchup features a low 39-point over/under, which could limit overall scoring opportunities. Started in just 4% of leagues, Sampson offers explosive change-of-pace ability but remains a deep-league play until his volume expands.
