Felony charges were dropped against Texans wide receiver Kenny Stills following his arrest at a Breonna Taylor protest in Louisville, Kentucky, per a statement from Jefferson County Attorney Mike O'Connell.

Fantasy Impact:

Stills appears to be on track to not miss training camp, but could still miss games due to his arrest, pending NFL review. Stills is a WR3 with upside as a member of the injury-plagued Texans receiving corps.

Rams trade Brandin Cooks to the Texans for draft picks

John McClain

Apr 09 · 7:38 PM EDT

Texans acquire WR Brandin Cooks and a 2022 fourth-round pick from the Rams for the 57th pick in this month's draft.

Fantasy Impact:

This is a nice spot for Brandin Cooks to land as he'll slide in as the Texans top wideout. He's a downgrade from DeAndre Hopkins talent-wise, but should still be a WR2 for fantasy purposes.

The #Texans have agreed to terms with WR @rcobb18 on a 3-year $27M deal with $18.75 guaranteed #Texans @nflnetwork

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.

Trade: Cardinals and Texans are agreeing to a trade that will send David Johnson to Houston, sources tell ESPN.

Fantasy Impact:

Houston is a great landing spot for David Johnson, as he should see more work than if he were to remain a Cardinal for the 2020 season. Johnson was RB37 in fantasy points last season.

Texans WR Will Fuller (groin, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 19. Fuller is expected to play per NFL Network's James Palmer. We don't know how healthy he is or even if he'll be able to finish the game, but his presence has helped both Deshaun Watson and Kenny Stills this season.

Bill O'Brien: Will Fuller 'game-time decision' for Sunday

Sarah Barshop

Jan 10 · 1:12 PM EST

Bill O'Brien said once again WR Will Fuller is a game time decision.

Fantasy Impact:

As it's been for most of the season, start Will Fuller with caution. If he plays, there's always the risk of reinjuring his groin, and his coach's uncertainty is also something of possible concern. If Fuller sits, the Texans will feature the trio of DeAndre Hopkins, Kenny Stills and DeAndre Carter in the slot.
