Boston hauled in a 46-yard touchdown late in Cleveland's blowout loss to Jacksonville. However, relying on rookies is inherently dangerous; next week fellow rookie KC Concepcion might score instead, or neither might produce.

Denzel Boston is the Browns' starting perimeter wide receiver, playing in one and two-receiver sets. While he scored a long touchdown on a deep ball from Deshaun Watson, he is not a high-volume target earner and his fantasy value is currently tied to that single big play.

Denzel Boston scored the Browns' lone touchdown in their 34-10 Week 1 loss to the Jaguars, diving to haul in a 46-yard touchdown pass from Deshaun Watson in the fourth quarter. Boston led Browns receivers in snaps on Sunday, playing 12 more than fellow rookie KC Concepcion. Browns beat writers raved about Boston's performance in training camp and seemed convinced the second-round rookie is destined to become an NFL stud. However, Boston and the Browns' other pass-catchers are facing fierce headwinds in a putrid offensive environment that could improve once the Browns bench Watson in favor of Shedeur Sanders. Boston is more of a wait-and-see addition than a player who can offer immediate help, but his potential is vast.

Boston, a second-round selection, had a better fantasy performance than first-rounder KC Concepcion in Week 1 against Jacksonville, turning four targets into 59 yards and a touchdown (46 of those yards). He led Browns wideouts in snaps, taking the field for 92% of their offensive plays. Despite the volatile depth chart at quarterback and floundering offense, Boston flashed and should be held to see how Todd Monken develops this group as the season progresses.

One big play to Denzel Boston with his first NFL TD is likely to keep Deshaun Watson as the starter; Monken's post-game refusal to blame Watson and this scoring play will be used as justification for Watson remaining the starter despite Week 1 poor performance and fan calls for Shedeur Sanders to replace him.
