Another Up-And-Down Game For C.J. Stroud

A promising start ended with an ugly defeat for Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, who finished 20-for-33 for 247 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in a 32-27 loss to Tennessee.

Titans Hold Joe Mixon In Check During Upset

The Tennessee Titans put the clamps on the Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon, holding him to just 22 yards and no touchdowns on 14 carries and pulling off a 32-27 upset.

Just Two Targets For Dalton Schultz Vs. Titans

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz caught both of his targets for 20 yards in a 32-27 loss to Tennessee.

The Houston […]

We're down to the home stretch of the fantasy regular season, and with six teams (yes, six) on a bye this week, injuries are going to be an even bigger deal. Waiver wires and free-agent pickups are likely to be competitive with some lineup regulars on injury reports this week, including Brock Purdy, CeeDee Lamb, […]

C.J. Stroud Relegated To Superflex Option In Week 12

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud should mostly be kept to Superflex duty as his team takes on the solid Tennessee Titans defense in Week 12. The Ohio State product has had an up-and-down second season, ranking a disappointing 17th among fantasy quarterbacks after his breakout rookie campaign. Part of the struggle has been pass protection, […]

Joe Mixon Takes Hot Streak Against Slumping Titans

Already one of the top-performing fantasy players of the year, Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon faces another decent matchup when his team plays host to the Tennessee Titans in Week 12.

WR1 Potential For Nico Collins Despite Matchup

Back in the lineup after a prolonged absence, Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins is once again a top fantasy option as his team takes on the Tennessee Titans in Week 12.

Tank Dell Faces Tough Matchup Against Titans

The Tennessee Titans present a difficult matchup for Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell in their first meeting of the season in Week 12.

That presents a complicated decision for […]

Dalton Schultz Off Starting Radar In Week 12

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz will face the struggling Tennessee Titans in Week 12, though that's not good news for a mid-tier fantasy player at his position.

Productive Ka'imi Fairbairn An Easy Starting Option Again

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn remains a clear starter once again as his team prepares to take on the slumping Tennessee Titans in Week 12.

Rolling Texans D/ST Has Another Strong Matchup In Week 12

Coming off back-to-back excellent games, the Houston Texans defense/special teams has a chance for another big performance with a home date against the bottom-tier offense of the Tennessee Titans in Week 12.

Pat Freiermuth Start or Sit? Week 12 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks, Fantasy Football Outlook (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Sit in 12-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE2 ANALYSIS: Since the Pittsburgh Steelers inserted Russell Wilson into the lineup, they're a perfect 4-0 and running the show in the AFC North -- but it hasn't necessarily been great for the fantasy stock of tight end Pat Freiermuth.

Uncertainty For Aaron Rodgers After Jets Fire GM

There are "far more questions than answers" surrounding the future of the New York Jets and quarterback Aaron Rodgers, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Eagles Mulling Saquon Barkley’s Goal-Line Work

Philadelphia Eagles coach Nick Sirianni on Monday said running back Saquon Barkley losing out on touches near the goal line is something "you always think about." The Eagles, of course, are devastatingly effective using quarterback Jalen Hurts to sneak the ball in short yardage, but often at the expense of their running backs. Kevin Patra […]

Ezekiel Elliott Held Quiet In Monday Night Loss

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott caught all three of his targets for 16 yards and carried once for eight yards in a 34-10 loss to Houston on Monday.

Moderate Production For Tank Dell In Week 11 Win

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell finished his team's 34-10 victory at Dallas with four catches for 54 yards on seven targets.

Stroud completed passes to eight different receivers, […]

Nico Collins Held To Four Catches Against Dallas

The Houston Texans saw top wide receiver Nico Collins haul in four passes for 54 yards on seven targets during a 34-10 victory at Dallas.
