Texans sign Nick Novak, release Randy Bullock

Sep 29, 2015

According to ESPN Texans reporter Tania Ganguli, former San Diego Chargers kicker Nick Novak will sign with Houston.

Novak won a tryout that included fellow kickers Giorgio Tavecchio, Kai Forbath, Chris Boswell and Connor Barth according to Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle.

Fantasy Impact:

The Texans waived Randy Bullock on Tuesday. Bullock missed two extra points in Houston’s first three games, and missed a 43-yard field goal on Sunday against Tampa Bay. The offense could soon get a lift with the return of Arian Foster at RB

Cowboys "moving away" from RBBC, declaring Rico Dowdle No. 1 RB

Mike McCarthy moving away from running back by committee concept, declaring Rico Dowdle the No. 1 RB. “Rico needs to touch the ball,” he said.

Related Players: Ezekiel Elliott, Deuce Vaughn, Dalvin Cook, Hunter Luepke

Fantasy Impact:

This is great and all, but the Cooper Rush-led offense looked beyond miserable last week, and it's hard to see how it's going to get much better moving forward. Consider Dowdle a high-floor/low-ceiling RB3 in Week 11.

WR Jonathan Mingo set to make Cowboys debut in Week 11

Jonathan Mingo is expected to make his debut for the Cowboys this week, per MM.

Mingo was inactive last week following the trade to allow time for ramping up.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks

Fantasy Impact:

We wouldn't expect a ton of action from Mingo fantasy-wise, but it's not as if he has a murderer's row of talent standing between himself and a WR2 role. He can be left on waiver wires in most every format, but might be worth checking to see if he ended up on waiver wires in Dynasty leagues.
