Darren Fells

Week 1 – Darren Fells at Kansas City Chiefs
In his first year with the Texans, Darren Fells caught a career-high 34 passes, with seven of them going for scores. He’s a huge target, so it’s no surprise Deshaun Watson looks his way in the red zone. Unfortunately for Fells owners, Watson has several other weapons, making the TE’s value mostly in finding the end zone. Look elsewhere for your Week 1 starter.

Week 16 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Even with Deshaun Watson passing for over 240 yards and two scores last week against the Titans, Darren Fells ended up with just a two-yard reception. In the last six contests Fells has totaled only eight grabs. Sure, his seven scores on the season are enticing, but he’s become a TD or bust option. Even against a poor Bucs pass defense he makes for a risky fantasy start.

Week 14 vs. Denver Broncos
After totaling only two receptions and not finding the end zone the previous two games, Darren Fells scored his seventh TD of the season versus the Patriots last Sunday night. He finished with two grabs for 23 yards but remains a red-zone weapon with a quarter of his catches resulting in touchdowns in ’19. Due to his lack of touches recently Fells remains a risky start, as he’s recorded only five receptions the past four outings.
