Not practicing Friday and not playing Sunday for Texans: Noah Brown (knee), Henry To'oTo'o (concussion protocol), Jake Hansen (hand surgery), and Jimmie Ward (hamstring).

Related Players: Nico Collins, Tank Dell, Robert Woods, John Metchie

With Brown missing Week 11, Tank Dell and a returning Nico Collins are both borderline WR2 options in a solid matchup against the Cardinals' defense.

Texans' RB Dameon Pierce (ankle), WR Noah Brown (knee), and S Jimmie Ward (hamstring) did not practice today.

Even as the Texans' offense rotates skill position players on and off the injured list, the offense has been exploding as of late. If Pierce misses, Devin Singletary gets bumped into the RB2 range once again. If Brown were to miss Week 11, Tank Dell and a returning Nico Collins are both borderline WR2 options in a solid matchup against the Cardinals' defense.

Bills QB Josh Allen (right shoulder) and WR Stefon Diggs (back) are off the injury report and do not have game designations for Monday against the Broncos.

Allen was a full participant in practice all week while Diggs was limited Friday and Saturday, though that seemed more like the Bills just being cautious with their star wide receiver this week. Both are in good positions for fantasy this week, especially Diggs, our No. 1 wide receiver this week.

Texans WR Nico Collins and RB Dameon Pierce are both out on Sunday against the Bengals.

Related Players: Devin Singletary, Mike Boone, Tank Dell, Noah Brown, Xavier Hutchinson, John Metchie

Singletary had the backfield mostly to himself last week and put forth a miserable performance, which makes him a stay-away for all but the most desperate fantasy managers ahead of this Week 10 game against the Bengals.

Nico Collins is a new name on the injury report, which is a bummer, as he has a surprising 36-631-4 stat line on the year. With him missing this matchup, Dell and Brown would figure to get the biggest increase in target share.

Stefon Diggs added to the Bills’ injury report. Limited today with a back injury. They play Monday, so his game status won’t be listed until tomorrow.

Related Players: Gabe Davis, Khalil Shakir, Trent Sherfield, Deonte Harty

It would be a bummer if he were to miss this game ahead of a cushy matchup against the Broncos' defense. If he's out, both Gabe Davis and Khalil Shakir should be thrust into respective WR2 and WR3 considerations.

Texans are expected to have Robert Woods back this week from a foot injury, with practice going well.

Related Players: Tank Dell, Noah Brown

This is good timing for the Texans, with Nico Collins trending towards missing this game. It's likely that the team eases Woods back into the offense, so it's not recommended to roll him out in fantasy.

A 3rd straight day of no practice for Texans WR Nico Collins, making him unlikely to play on Sunday vs. the Bengals.

Ka’imi Fairbairn’s injury is inducing the Texans to make a move at kicker.

Fairbairn is set to miss at least a week with the quad injury he suffered during the first half of Sunday’s victory over the Buccaneers, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC. He may miss more time.

To offset losing Fairbairn, the club will sign Matt Ammendola to the practice squad, Wilson reports.

Fairbairn has hit 18-of-19 field goals this season, with the only miss coming from her 50 yards. He’s also hit 14-of-14 extra points.

Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn was ruled out of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers with a quad injury.

Backup running back Dare Ogunbowale is now handling kickoff duties. The Texans scored in the third quarter and went for two, a likely signal of what's to come, at least in the immediate future. Ogunbowale's first kickoff went to about the 5 and was returned to around the 30.
