Read More

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce had gone over 80 rushing yards in four consecutive games entering Sunday's contest against the Titans, but Tennessee's defense was able to shut the rookie down on the ground.

Texans Defense Has Limited Appeal In Week 8

The Houston Texans defense is a little more appealing than usual on Sunday against a Titans team that ranks just 21st in the NFL in points per game, but there's still plenty of reason to be concerned. For example, the Texans allow the most rushing yards per game in the NFL and face a team... Read More

Ka'imi Fairbairn Has Some Upside In Week 8

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn started the year hot, not missing a single kick in his first three games. He's missed two of them in the last three games, so there's definitely a little concern there about his accuracy. But the Texans offense has a tendency to stall out in opponent territory, which is why... Read More

Jordan Akins Has Some Deep-League Appeal In Week 8

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins could be a sneaky play in deep leagues or DFS this week against the Titans, who allow the second-most passing yards per game in the NFL.

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks (wrist) looks like he'll play Sunday against the Titans, and with fellow receiver Nico Collins (groin) trending in the wrong direction, Cooks should be in line for more targets this week.

Dameon Pierce Remains An RB2 Play Against Titans

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce doesn't have the easiest matchup on Sunday against a Titans team that allows the fourth-fewest rushing yards per game to opposing teams, but his volume makes him an RB2 play despite that. He's had 20 or more carries in three of the last four games, while he's also been... Read More

Davis Mills Has Deep Fantasy Appeal Against Titans

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills hasn't had a great season, but he's got a chance to post solid numbers on Sunday against a Titans team that ranks 31st in the NFL in passing yards allowed per game.

Mecole Hardman (WR, KC) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 8

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Chiefs have a bye next week, so Hardman can't help you immediately, but we can't ignore a player who scored three touchdowns this week, even if two of them came on run plays, something that's pretty fluky.
