Texans to go with Tyrod Taylor at QB

Sep 06, 2021

Texans coach David Culley tells reporters that Tyrod Taylor will start at QB, which confirms what appeared clear: Deshaun Watson will sit on the roster but not play.

Fantasy Impact:

As expected Taylor gets the nod for the Texans. Recent reports have indicated Watson would just be inactive every week and that appears to be the direction we're heading toward. Between the baggage that comes with Watson right now, and what is said to be the Texans' high asking price, other teams don't want to make the commitment. It's probably likely that at some point this season, Mills will take over for Taylor, but it's not an ideal fantasy situation for either QB.

“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.
