Wide Receiver Insights

With both Nico Collins and Christian Kirk currently managing injuries, the Texans’ receiving options might look quite different this week. Despite limited playing time until late in the previous game, Jaylin Noel made an impact with four receptions for 77 yards off seven targets. The rookie also scored a touchdown in the preceding game. Even though his consistent use is uncertain, given the Texans’ inclination to utilize experienced yet less productive veterans like Xavier Hutchinson and Braxton Berrios, Noel would be my preferred pick if I were to start a Texans’ WR in Week 8. He’s best viewed as a WR4/flex, and there’s hope that fellow rookie Jayden Higgins will also find his rhythm in this game.

Lamar Jackson’s anticipated return quickly restores Zay Flowers to the discussion as a high-end WR2 for fantasy teams. Flowers has reached at least 70 receiving yards in four of his five games this season, though he still faces challenges with scoring touchdowns. The hope is that Jackson’s presence will help him find the end zone for the first time since Week 1.
