Juwan Johnson Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

The forecast for today's Saints-Browns game calls for temperatures in the single digits with sustained winds of 20-25 mph and gusts of 40+. The wind chill is well below zero. They're brutal conditions that will significantly limit the passing and kicking games. Check out our projections for all the Saints and Browns players.

Saints WR Chris Olave (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 16 vs. the Browns. With Olave inactive and WR Jarvis Landry landing on IR due to an ankle injury, not many Saints players warrant fantasy consideration in Saturday's game. TE Juwan Johnson could theoretically see a boost in opportunity. However, the weather in Cleveland is expected to be nasty. RB Alvin Kamara is about the only Saints player fantasy managers can count on in any meaningful way in this contest.

Saints QB Andy Dalton threw for 151 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday's narrow win over the Falcons. He found TE Juwan Johnson for each score, from 19 and 22 yards out. He ceded the remaining TD toss to Taysom Hill, in a game that saw New Orleans attempt only 19 passes. The Saints visit another soft run defense in Cleveland in Week 16. Then comes a Philly defense that rates weak vs. the run and league best against the pass. Don't get excited about Dalton as an option for your fantasy football playoffs.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Falcons. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable. Johnson would be a desperation fantasy play. TE Adam Trautman (ankle) is also active.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Falcons. We’ll get New Orleans’ inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday, but Johnson shouldn’t be in fantasy lineups at less than 100%. TE Adam Trautman (ankle) is also questionable.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson (ankle) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He missed New Orleans' last game before the Week 14 bye, but it looks like he has a shot to make it back for Sunday's game vs. the Falcons. Johnson will be just a TE2 if he plays.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson (ankle) is out for Monday night's game vs. the Bucs. That figures to vault TE Adam Trautman into the lead role and might also mean more action in the passing game for Taysom Hill.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson (ankle) missed his 2nd straight practice on Friday, putting him in danger of missing Monday night’s game vs. the Bucs. We’ll see how he’s listed on the final injury report on Saturday afternoon. Johnson’s absence would leave Adam Trautman as New Orleans’ lead TE and potentially mean a bigger pass-catching role for Taysom Hill.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson missed Thursday's practice with an ankle injury. Perhaps that explains why he played a season-low 47% of the offensive snaps last week. We'll see if Johnson is able to get back on the field tomorrow, ahead of Monday night's game vs. the Bucs.

Coming off a pair of bad outings, Saints QB Andy Dalton proved efficient and productive in Sunday's win over the Rams. He completed 21 of 25 passes for 260 yards and 3 TDs. Dalton found WR Chris Olave for a 53-yard score, tossing his other 2 TDs to TE Juwan Johnson and WR Jarvis Landry. Olave was the only Saint to crack 50 receiving yards, taking his 5 catches for 102 yards. New Orleans heads to San Francisco in Week 12.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson led the team in targets (7), receptions (5) and receiving yards (44) in Sunday's loss at Pittsburgh. He also snagged the team's only TD of the day from 15 yards out. WR Chris Olave, WR Jarvis Landry and RB Alvin Kamara tied for 2nd on the team with 3 receptions apiece. Landry checked in 2nd with 6 targets in his 1st action since Week 4. Olave trailed Landry by 1 target and 1 snap but ran 2 more routes. Week 11 holds a home date with the Rams.

Saints TE Adam Trautman (ankle) put in a full practice on Saturday and isn't listed on the final injury report. He'll be back for Monday night's game vs. the Ravens after missing the previous 2 weeks. Trautman isn't a fantasy option but does put a slight dent in TE Juwan Johnson's outlook.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson (hamstring) is active for today’s game against the Raiders. TE Adam Trautman (ankle) is inactive. Johnson was added to Thursday's injury report and then limited in Friday's practice, so he carries elevated risk today.

Saints TEs Juwan Johnson (hamstring) and Adam Trautman (ankle) are listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Raiders. Johnson was added to Thursday's injury report and then limited in Friday's practice. Trautman returned to a limited practice on Friday after sitting out the previous 2 days. With both guys at less than 100%, try to avoid this situation in Week 8 fantasy lineups.

Saints TE Juwan Johnson was added to Thursday's injury report with a hamstring and limited in practice. So his availability for this weekend's game vs. the Raiders is now in question. Check back tomorrow for another update on Johnson. TE Adam Trautman (ankle) remained sidelined on Thursday.

Saints TE Adam Trautman (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. If he remains out for this weekend's game vs. the Raiders, TE Juwan Johnson will be a low-end spot-start option in fantasy lineups.

Saints TE Adam Trautman is expected to miss Thursday night's game against the Cardinals after leaving Sunday's loss with an ankle injury, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. "Early signs are that he's avoided a serious issue," Fowler adds. Juwan Johnson should benefit from Trautman's absence and be a TE2-level option for fantasy football lineups in Week 7.
