Texans QB job is 'wide open'

Jun 03, 2014

Texans HC Bill O'Brien has said that the QB competition is "wide open" and at this point he is giving the QBs equal reps until he has to make decision closer to the season of who is going to get starter reps. And making the right decision on that is important, because increased reps with the first team is key for proper prep for the season.

Fantasy Impact:

We believe that Ryan Fitzpatrick has the edge due to his experience, but it sounds as if rookie Tom Savage has a fair shot to win the job in camp. Case Keenum is the wild card, but it's tough to see the team giving the job tohim after drafting Savage. This is probably a situation to avoid at this point.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
