Trends


"Irving is a strong 2025 breakout candidate following an impressive rookie season. The fourth-round pick didn't play on over half the snaps in a game until Week 6, but was fantasy's No. 10 RB from that point on. He produced 15-plus fantasy points in nine of his final 12 games, with injury responsible for two duds. Irving's efficiency was elite, as his 5.4 YPC, 2.5 YAC, 90% catch rate and 7.5 RAC were all top 5 among RBs. Irving will defer some work to Rachaad White, and his 192-frame raises obvious durability questions, but he looked the part as a rookie and is well positioned for 15-plus touches per game in a good offense. At worst, he's a fringe RB1."


"Irving proved capable of handling a true workhorse role, logging a new career high in rush attempts. As his final implies, the Panthers made the second-year back work hard for his yards, but Irving was able to move the chains on five occasions, certainly a critical stat in what turned out to be a narrow win. Irving finishes his injury-hampered regular season with 588 rushing yards at just 3.4 yards per carry, but he'll have a chance for better production in the wild-card round next weekend if the Saints can upend or tie the Falcons on Sunday."

"Johnson is entering his second NFL season after playing a hefty 84% of the Giants' offensive snaps as a rookie. The fourth-round pick didn't see much work in the passing game early on and missed the final five games due to injury, but he was picking up steam prior to going down. After totaling a 14-150-0 receiving line on 20 targets (7% share) during his first eight games, Johnson leapt to a 15-181-1 line on 23 targets (19%) in the final four outings. The fantasy output wasn't great in the Giants' punchless offense, but the increase in reliance is notable and it will only help having Russell Wilson under center. The 24-year-old Johnson is a fine sleeper target in the late rounds."


"With Johnson having been downgraded to out for the contest, Daniel Bellinger and Chris Manhertz are slated to lead the Giants' Week 17 tight end corps. Johnson's next chance to see game action will arrive in Week 18, when New York faces Dallas at home."

Theo Johnson's receiving yards have increased by 138.89% over the past 12 weeks.

Theo Johnson's receiving touchdowns have decreased by 75.0+% over the past 10 weeks.

Theo Johnson's target share has increased by 46.61% over the past 18 weeks.
