Case Keenum to start Week 12

Nov 19, 2013

Gary Kubiak named Case Keenum as the starting quarterback for the fifth consecutive game.

No matter who the coach is next season or what system the offense employs, the Texans must find out if Keenum has what it takes to be a big-time starter in the NFL.

And the jury is still out.

After the Texans suffered an embarrassing 28-23 loss to Oakland at Reliant Stadium to drop to 2-8, Keenum will take an 0-4 record as a starter into the Jacksonville game.

Fantasy Impact:

The story points out the Texans have lost by one, three, three and five points in Keenum's starts. The piece added that Keenum has given them a chance to win each of those games, despite struggling in the second half. Keenum has some weapons around him but will likely be no better than a middle-of-the-road QB2 fantasy option even against the Jags.

49ers RB Isaac Guerendo "plans to play" TNF

San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo plans to play Thursday night against the Los Angeles Rams despite his sprained foot, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Guerendo, who is listed as questionable, insists he "feels good," sources said.

Fantasy Impact:

We're projecting Patrick Taylor as the next man up in the 49ers' version of running back roulette *if* Guerendo is forced out, as he easily has the most familiarity with the team. Abanikanda can be stashed if that's not the case, but shouldn't be in starting consideration if Guerendo does indeed miss Week 15.

Otherwise, consider the fourth-round rookie a fantasy RB2.

— The 49ers ruled out LT Trent Williams (ankle) and S Malik Mustapha (chest), but RB Isaac Guerendo (foot) is questionable. So is Dre Greenlaw, who was full today.
— The Rams ruled out TE Tyler Higbee (knee) and Cobie Durant (chest).

Rams are listing WR Demarcus Robinson (shoulder), WR Jordan Whittington (shoulder), and TE Davis Allen (shoulder) as questionable for Thursday night’s game versus the 49ers.

Related Players: Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp, Tutu Atwell, Tyler Johnson

Fantasy Impact:

This doesn't really impact Nacua or Kupp either way, but Atwell could log a little extra work here. Consider him a very deep league WR5.
