Texans receiver Will Fuller announced via Instagram Monday that he's been suspended six games for violating the NFL's performance-enhancing drug policy.

Related players: Brandin Cooks, Randall Cobb, Kenny Stills, Keke Coutee

Fantasy Impact:

It's a huge blow to the Texan offense and a hit to QB Deshaun Waton's fantasy value. Fuller had 53 receptions for 879 yards for an average of 16.58 per catch. Fuller had eight touchdowns for the year. From Sept. 27 through Nov. 8, Fuller had a touchdown catch in each game, a streak of six. The story added Fuller, who's a pending free agent at the conclusion of this season, will miss Houston's five remaining games and the 2021 season opener, regardless of whether he stays put or signs with a different franchise. Cooks, Cobb, Stills and Coutee will move up a spot on the depth chart. Cobb is currently dealing with a toe injury.
