BALLER MOVE: Sit In All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR8
ANALYSIS: After missing Weeks 6 and 7 due to a foot injury, Robert Woods returned to action for the Houston Texans in Week 8 but had a modest performance.
He caught both his targets for 18 yards in the Texans' 23-20 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Additionally, he returned two punts for 23 yards.
#Texans WR routes yesterday. On 40 CJ Stroud dropbacks:
1. Tank Dell 30
2. Stef Diggs 28 (left late in Q3 with non-contact knee injury)
3. Xavier Hutchinson 26
4. John Metchie 9
5. Robert Woods 8Note Nico Collins (hamstring) reportedly trending toward a Week 10 return.

With Stefon Diggs out for the season due to a knee injury, Woods, Xavier Hutchinson, and John Metchie III will compete for targets alongside Tank Dell, who is in line to have a more significant role in the offense.
This week, Houston faces the New York Jets, a tough matchup as they give up the fifth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks and the fourth-fewest to wide receivers.
Given Woods' limited involvement and the competition for targets, he should remain on your bench in all leagues. While he might have occasional flashes, he lacks the consistent production needed for a starting lineup.
