Brock Bowers vs Juwan Johnson: Who Should You Start?
Deciding between Brock Bowers and Juwan Johnson is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Las Vegas Raiders tight end put up 12.0 PPG in 2025 over 12 games; Juwan Johnson of the New Orleans Saints averaged 8.3 in 17. A 3.7-point margin that could shift on any given week.
The per-game difference of 3.7 points favors Brock Bowers, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one tight end to the other.
Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Brock Bowers had 64 catches for 680 yards; Juwan Johnson posted 77 for 889. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.
One scheduling note: Brock Bowers is off Week 10 and Juwan Johnson Week 12. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in tight end for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
