Keon Coleman vs Quentin Johnston: Who Should You Start?
Deciding between Keon Coleman and Quentin Johnston is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Buffalo Bills wide receiver put up 6.4 PPG in 2025 over 13 games; Quentin Johnston of the Los Angeles Chargers averaged 10.4 in 14. A 4.0-point margin that could shift on any given week.
The per-game difference of 4.0 points favors Quentin Johnston, 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 wide receiver to the other.
Target volume is the story here. Quentin Johnston saw 85 targets in 2025, while Keon Coleman drew 59. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Quentin Johnston, even in weeks where Keon Coleman posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.
One scheduling note: Keon Coleman 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.
