Texans say QB Tyrod Taylor (hamstring) is the starter

Oct 25, 2021

“Tyrod Taylor was our starting quarterback, and when he’s healthy, he’ll be our starting quarterback,” said Texans’ HC David Culley.

Fantasy Impact:

The tweet went on to say Taylor, who has been on IR since he injured his left hamstring in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns, will return to practice Wednesday. If he's able to play this week, we now have to assume it will be Mills to the bench. Taylor should at least be a slight upgrade. Taylor rushed for 40 yards in Week 1 and rushed for a TD in Week 2. He also threw for two TDs in Week 1 and one in Week 2 before getting hurt. Taylor would get the Rams in Week 8 if he's able to stay on the practice field this week.

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.

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.
