Taysom got an injury tag today due to foot and hand issues. Johnson hasn’t done much but did score this past weekend. I was set in Taysom until he got a questionable tag today and did not practice. Sucks because Johnson plays tomorrow and I don’t have a third option if Taysom sits Sunday. Do I play it safe and go Johnson or is Hill worth the risk of waiting. Tomorrow’s report may help decide.

I’d go with Hill. More touches.

I'm not sure Johnson is the "Safe" option. Don't know why his volume has taken such a hit, but the Steelers offense is a mess. Pickett was terrible, but we have no idea who Trubisky will favor with his targets.

If Carr is out indefinitely, then Taysom should be very involved and get lots of touches in the redzone.

As of today, Carr is practicing and Taysom is not.

Yeah. Just pulled Taysom out and in with Diontae. I do have Noah Brown I could flex but I was benching him this week due to his matchup and the fact he scored 0 last week while being on the field for 80% of the snaps. Basically it was having to decide between Hill and Diontae.

Most definitely. Hell I was happy with the one td catch when it looked like that was all he would get.

I was also between Diontae and Brown, as well as Higgins. I was honestly between Brown and Higgins, leaning Higgins due to Brown’s matchup with the Jets and the bad weather. Can pretty much guarantee Diontae would have been the right choice.
