Wide Receiver Rank: #8 Overall: #31
Johnson battled a sprained ankle much of the season, which hurt his production, but he still produced his usual dependable numbers despite missing three games. He had his third straight 1,000-yard season and scored eight touchdowns. Johnson had 100-plus receptions three of the last four seasons before last year. Johnson turns 30 before the start of the season, but seems to have plenty left in the tank. He is the go-to option in the Texans offense. Johnson is the complete package at receiver. He can run, but also has great size. Johnson isn't afraid to make the tough catch and has the speed to stretch the field to make big plays.

Johnson has yet to score double-digit touchdowns in his career, which hurts his fantasy value. If he consistently got the scores, he would be the clear No. 1 fantasy receiver. He was on his way to double-digit scores last season before the injury, which is encouraging. Johnson is a top-three fantasy receiver capable of leading all receivers in scoring. He can have another season with 100 receptions and 1,500 yards and around 10 touchdowns. |

'He's ready to go. We weren't sure if we were going to get him back this season. We were able to get him 20 plays last week and he looked good. That was a step in the right direction. He needs a good week of work this week. I don't expect him to play 60-70 plays this week but if he's ready to play a good 45-50 and help us out. It means a lot to the team,' Kubiak said. |
