Outlook Emmett Johnson
Emmett Johnson at Atlanta Faces Limited Volume Despite Big-Play Upside
Healthy for Sunday's road matchup in Atlanta, rookie Emmett Johnson continues to operate behind Kenneth Walker in Kansas City's backfield while drawing league-wide buzz for his explosiveness. Over his last two outings, Johnson turned seven carries and five catches into 177 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns, pushing his fantasy roster rate up to 45%.
Despite that big-play spark, Johnson is started in only 8% of leagues because his touch volume stays limited. Our weekly projection lands at 6.9 PPR points on roughly four carries and two catches, making him too touch-dependent for standard lineups. Keep him on your bench as a high-upside stash against a 3-6 Falcons squad.

Outlook Germie Bernard
Germie Bernard at Cincinnati in a Projected Divisional Shootout
Healthy for Week 10, Bernard remains a trusted piece of Pittsburgh's passing attack behind DK Metcalf after the Steelers stood pat at the trade deadline. Even with injured teammates nearing potential returns, the rookie caught all five targets for 30 yards in his last game and enters a clash of division rivals riding four straight victories.
Rostered in 81% of leagues with start rates climbing back to 37%, Bernard works as a viable flex play in a high total matchup on Sunday night. Our weekly projection lands near 10.1 PPR points and 37 receiving yards, giving him sneaky upside as a slight road underdog.
