Diontae Johnson vs Tyreek Hill: The Full Breakdown
Diontae Johnson and Tyreek Hill are both viable fantasy wide receivers heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Diontae Johnson averaged 9.3 PPG across 15 games with the Baltimore Ravens, while Tyreek Hill posted 10.8 PPG in 4 appearances for the Miami Dolphins.
A 1.5-PPG gap gives Tyreek Hill the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.
Target volume is the story here. Diontae Johnson saw 95 targets in 2025, while Tyreek Hill drew 29. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Diontae Johnson, even in weeks where Tyreek Hill posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.
Diontae Johnson has his bye in Week 14, and Tyreek Hill rests in Week 6. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at wide receiver for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
