Rex Burkhead Catches Touchdown In Week 4
Houston Texans running back Rex Burkhead was targeted five times in Sunday's loss to the Chargers, catching all five passes for 39 yards and a touchdown. But Burkhead didn't see a single touch in the run game, as all 14 carries for the team went to Dameon Pierce. Burkhead's receiving work would make him a […]

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks caught all seven of his targets in Sunday's loss to the Chargers, finishing with seven catches for 57 yards and a touchdown. Cooks continues to be the No. 1 option for quarterback Davis Mills, but it isn't by the overwhelming margin that was anticipated, which has lowered his floor. […]

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins had a 58-yard reception from quarterback Davis Mills in Sunday's loss to the Chargers, and that one reception for Collins was for more yardage than any other Texans player had in total on the day. All in all, Collins had three catches for 82 yards. There have been some […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoDameon Pierce Has Another Strong Outing
Houston Texans rookie running back Dameon Pierce continues to establish himself as one of the NFL's top young backs. In Sunday's loss to the Chargers, Pierce had 14 carries, finishing with 131 yards, with 75 of those yards coming on one long touchdown run. He also had six receptions for eight yards. Houston's offense at […]

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills was 26-for-35 for 246 yards in Sunday's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He had a pair of touchdowns, but also was picked off twice.

The NASCAR Cup Series heads to Talladega on Sunday for the second race of the Round of 12. Through four playoff races, no active playoff driver has won—the first three races were won by non-playoff drivers, while last week at Texas, the already-eliminated Tyler Reddick drove to victory lane. The biggest storyline heading into this […]

Formula 1 heads to Singapore this weekend for the Singapore Grand Prix. It's been a few weeks since the last race—the cancelation of the Russian Grand Prix meant that 9/11/22 was the last time these cars hit the track for the Italian Grand Prix, which Max Verstappen won. It was his fifth win in a […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoChiefs Defense Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football
The Kansas City Chiefs defense is a risky fantasy play in Week 4 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While the Bucs rank 22nd in scoring offense this season, they still have Tom Brady at quarterback plus an offensive system that can make big plays happen. Because of the matchup, the Chiefs defense is a fade […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoJerick McKinnon Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football
Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon has seen an increased role as the season has gone along, with McKinnon now appearing to share this backfield with Clyde Edwards-Helaire in a near split. McKinnon had seven carries last week, but finished with just 20 yards. With a tough Buccaneers defense on deck this weekend, McKinnon […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoClyde Edwards-Helaire Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football
Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire has put up some strong numbers so far this season, but a lot of his production has come from touchdowns. Last week, he found the end zone, but totaled zero yards on seven carries. Regression is likely coming for Edwards-Helaire. A Week 4 matchup against a Buccaneers team […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoJuJu Smith-Schuster - Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster is a WR3 play for Sunday night's contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Smith-Schuster has had two good showings since joining the Chiefs, but sandwiched in the middle was a 10-yard game against the Chargers. Tampa Bay allows fewer points per game than any team in the NFL, […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoTravis Kelce - Week 4 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce hasn't been as dominant this season as he has in the past, but he remains one of the top tight ends in the NFL and in fantasy football. Kelce has been targeted at least seven times in each game and he's found the end zone twice already, plus […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoPatrick Mahomes - Week 4 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is always a must-start player in season-long fantasy leagues, but Sunday night's matchup against the Buccaneers projects to be a tough one, making him a potential fade in DFS. The Bucs allows the 12th-fewest passing yards per game this season and the fewest points per game, with opponents averaging […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoTexans Defense Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football
The Houston Texans defense is a risky fantasy option this week against the high-powered Chargers. Even with wide receiver Keenan Allen out, Justin Herbert and the Chargers have one of the league's top offenses, ranking second in the NFL in passing yards per game. Houston has been decent against the pass, allowing the 11th-fewest passing […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoKa'imi Fairbairn's Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football
Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn has been a consistent player so far this season, making all seven of his field goal attempts and all three of his extra point attempts. Houston's offense has been decent at getting into field goal range and bad at finishing drives, which has helped give Fairbairn opportunities. That trend is […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoNico Collins' Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins had just two receptions for 41 yards in Week 3 against the Bears. Heading into this week's meeting with the Chargers, Collins is a low-end flex option at best in deep leagues. He was targeted nine times back in Week 2, so there's always a chance that quarterback Davis […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoBrandin Cooks' Week 4 Oulook For Fantasy Football
Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks was thought to be a high-floor WR2/3 option in fantasy this season, but the Texans have spread the ball around more than anticipated so far. With a tough matchup against the Chargers on Sunday, Cooks is more of a WR3/4 play than a WR2/3 play. He'll still likely lead […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoDameon Pierce's Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football
Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce is a fantasy RB2 option this week against a Chargers team that allows more rushing yards per game than any other NFL team. Pierce opened the season in a timeshare with Rex Burkhead, but he's emerged as the clear No. 1 option on this team and saw 20 carries […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoDavis Mills' Week 4 Outlook For Fantasy Football
Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills is a risky fantasy football option for Sunday's meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers. While LA has allowed the 20th-most passing yards per game this season, the Chargers have also faced the Chiefs already, which has skewed that number. Mills threw for a season-high 245 yards last week, but was […]

The NASCAR Xfinity Series heads to Talladega for the second race of the Round of 12.

Justin Carter 2 years agoGetting Dubs In Duval: Analyzing The Jaguars In Fantasy Football Going Forward
The Jacksonville Jaguars might be good. Yeah, I'm as surprised as you are, but after beating the Chargers 38-10, the Jaguars look dangerous. The team has scored 22 or more points in each of its games this season, which is notable since in 17 games last season, the team hit that mark just twice. And […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoIs Mac Jones healthy or injured? Will Jones be active in Week 4?
New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones had a strong showing in his rookie season, but his 2022 season has gotten off to a slow start, as he's already thrown a league-high five interceptions. To make matters worse, Jones suffered an ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Jones threw for 321 yards in […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoBrandin Cooks Struggles In Week 3
Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks predictably led the team in targets on Sunday with seven, but he caught just two of those for 22 yards. He finished the game fifth on the team in receiving yardage. Cooks was supposedly to be a high-floor fantasy play this week because of his role in this offense, […]

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins had three catches for 31 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bears. Akins had been on the Texans practice squad and hadn't appeared in the first two game. Considering he was only elevated because Brevin Jordan (ankle) was out, Akins can safely be left on […]

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins was targeted four times in Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bears, pulling in two of the passes for 41 yards. Collins is the No. 2 receiver on this Texans team, a role that would normally hold fantasy value. But with the Texans having a fairly low passing volume and […]
