New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (calf) is not practicing again on Thursday for Week 6 against the Houston Texans.
Johnson has been inactive since injuring his calf in Week 4 during pregame against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Foster Moreau will start at tight end again if Johnson remains out, with Jimmy Graham playing snaps behind him.
Johnson is the TE25 in numberFire's Week 6 rankings and our models project him for 4.6 FanDuel points, with 3.6 targets, 2.3 receptions, and 24.4 yards. The Texans are allowing the seventh-most FanDuel points per game to opposing tight ends this season, but their pass defense ranks just 26th in numberFire's opponent-adjusted NEP model.
