Houston Texans receiver Andre Johnson was a perennial superstar and a must-start receiver not too long ago. Nowadays, he's been a mid-level fantasy play and is just the 23rd-best receiver in PPR fantasy leagues. It's easy to see why.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 8: Andre Johnson
Andre Johnson and the Texans didn’t fare well against the Steelers last week. Should fantasy owners start Johnson this week in a better matchup against Tennessee?


Johnson has just one touchdown since Nov. 11, 2013, despite not missing any games due to injury in that span. That’s crazy for a guy who had 109 catches last season and is already eighth in the NFL all time for receptions from a wide receiver.
Johnson gets a nice matchup this week against the No. 21 pass defense of the Tennessee Titans. The Texans should be able to move the ball with running back Arian Foster, but they will still need to have a balanced attack. Johnson's numbers are slightly worse on the the road, but not enough to dissuade you from starting him.
Fantasy impact: Johnson serves as a very solid WR2 this week, especially in PPR. Get him in your lineup unless you have a stud locked in there.
