Garrett Wilson vs Quentin Johnston: Who Should You Start?
This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Garrett Wilson finished the 2025 season at 11.6 PPG over 7 games with the New York Jets, while Quentin Johnston clocked in at 10.4 across 14 appearances for the Los Angeles Chargers. A 1.2-point gap means any given week could go either way.
With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.
Target volume is the story here. Quentin Johnston saw 85 targets in 2025, while Garrett Wilson drew 59. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Quentin Johnston, even in weeks where Garrett Wilson posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.
One scheduling note: Garrett Wilson is off Week 12 and Quentin Johnston Week 5. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
