Arizona Cardinals running back Chris Johnson was an easy target for a joke. CJ2K turned to CJ0K and eventually to CJ?K. Well, now he's somewhere in the middle of those as he's atop the depth chart for the Cardinals.
Fantasy football start/sit, Week 7: Chris Johnson is the top back again
Chris Johnson is now the top back on the Cardinals. We break down the fantasy implications.
Despite not even being on a team in August, Johnson is sitting pretty as the RB18 in PPR fantasy leagues. Besides a tough matchup last week against the Pittsburgh Steelers, he's scored at least 12.5 fantasy points in the past five games -- he had a 110-yard, two-score game in Week 4.
This week, he gets a mediocre matchup at home against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens defense has come out flat on the road and especially out west, so this bodes well for the former top back. Although, the Ravens are a disaster at stopping the pass, so there's a chance that the Cardinals count on the pass.
Fantasy impact: He should get his 15 touches and be a low-end RB2.
