Randall Cobb is expected to be out for least the Texans' game against the Detroit Lions, if not longer, according to league sources not authorized to speak publicly. Cobb underwent a magnetic resonance imaging exam Monday, as will wide receiver Kenny Stills for an injured quadriceps.

The initial diagnosis on Stills is it isn't considered serious, per sources. The Texans are expected to re-evaluate Cobb's injury after the Detroit game to determine if he can return this season.

Writer Aaron Wilson tweeted Cobb's toe injury is regarded as serious enough that team could place him on injured reserve, being out at least three weeks, no roster move yet, per sources. Buried on the depth chart all season, and once a popular dynasty league fantasy pickup, Coutee ended up catching a TD with Cobb and Stills out of the game. He could move up the depth chart if both are out for Thursday's game against the Lions, which is obviously on a short week, possibly making him the team's WR3. Coutee could have some value in deeper leagues but would be hard to trust in lineups.

When asked about the quiet games Brandin Cooks and he put up, Randall Cobb responded ""In the passing game, it takes a lot to build that chemistry and that trust. It'll come. It's a matter of when. Obviously, we've got to have that urgency moving forward."

Cobb disappointed in his Texans debut as Houston was pounded by the Kansas City Chiefs. Watson will be the receiver to run short and intermediate routes, routes that Watson need to be ran so he has a safety valve with the team's porous offensive line. Look for him to rebound Week 2 in another higher scoring game against the Baltimore Ravens.

Texans coach Bill O’Brien said it’s clear Watson has “a really good grasp of our offense” and is “playing at a really high level.”

Watson said despite the changes -- and lack of practice time this offseason with new Texans receivers Brandin Cooks and Randall Cobb -- he believes his “confidence is continuing to grow."

Obviously losing DeAndre Hopkins was a big deal, but the story said Watson is adjusting nicely. Watson is also entering his fourth year in the offense so there a greater level of comfort. Watson is ranked fourth on our QB list.

Kenny Stills was on the NFI list and it’s been set for him to return soon and now it’s officially happened.

With DeAndre Hopkins no longer in Houston, the WR battle will be a key battle for fantasy owners. Still is battling with Fuller, Cobb and Cooks and right now we ranked him as the WR4 for the Texans.

Randall Cobb will attempt to fill in the massive hole left by DeAndre Hopkins in the Texans offense. His arrival isn't the best news for Keke Coutee.
