Week 10 Start/Sit: Brett Favre Vs. The Lions

Start Em!

Quarterbacks

With Larry Johnson out of Kansas City, does he have any fantasy value left? Many teams are struggling at running back, but most have made it clear that they have no interest in LJ. The big story this week was Johnson’s desire to play for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Larry Johnson is exactly the type of player the Steelers want no part of. Pittsburgh is a team of integrity and character, neither of which the disgraced RB has ever shown.

To answer the initial question, it would depend on where LJ ends up this season. One team that could desperately use him, to the point of overlooking his flaws, is Seattle. Julius Jones is simply not capable of getting the job done. Although, given the Seahawks offensive line woes, I doubt LJ would fare much better in the Pacific Northwest. And after his gay slurs, the community would not stand for his presence there either.
