Panthers WR Diontae Johnson was dominant against the Raiders with QB Andy Dalton at QB. He had eight receptions on 14 targets for 122 yards and a TD.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

Our Comeback Player of the Year, Johnson, may finally be unlocked with the QB change for the Panthers. 

Johnson was the clear favorite for Dalton racking up nearly three times the targets of the next WR (Adam Thielen). 

Three of the next four games are good match-ups for Johnson against the Bengals, Bears, and Commanders. In Week 6 however, Johnson will draw a tough Falcons pass defense.

He should be a fantasy starter moving forward and with these type of targets, he is match-up proof.
