Juwan Johnson (quad) back at Saints practice Thursday
New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (quad) was a limited participant at practice on Thursday.
What It Means:
Johnson was held out of Wednesday's practice, but he is back on track to play in Week 18 against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Last week, Johnson caught 5 passes on 7 targets for 62 yards in the Saints' upset victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. It was his second 60-yard game in three weeks.
numberFire's models project Johnson for 6.0 targets, 3.9 receptions, and 41.3 yards on Sunday. He has a $5,700 FanDuel salary and is the TE9 in our Week 18 rankings. The Panthers are in the top-10 of the league this season in FanDuel points allowed per game to the tight end position this season.
