Scouting report

HOU RB Chris Polk - Week 10, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Cincinnati
Alfred Blue led the Texans ground game with 14 carries two weeks ago in the win over Tennessee, while Chris Polk registered eight rushes for 18 yards. During the bye week, however, Polk has been downgraded to the team's No. 3 RB, behind Jonathan Grimes. In any event, it will be a RBBC approach the rest of the way for Houston, making none of the backs fantasy worthy. Polk should be left on your bench this week.

HOU RB Chris Polk - Week 8, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Tennessee
Now Arian Foster is no longer a part of the Houston backfield, expect to see Chris Polk sharing the RB duties with Alfred Blue and Jonathan Grimes. Polk totaled 18 yards on six touches in the loss to the Dolphins last week and is averaging 30 total yards per game this season. Polk is the more seasoned pass catcher, while Blue will likely receive more rush attempts. Right now, the RBBC doesn’t favor any of the Texans running backs.

HOU RB Chris Polk - Week 7, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Miami
At Jacksonville last week, Chris Polk spelled Arian Foster for eight rushes and 37 yards. Alfred Blue and Jonathan Grimes were battling injuries prior to the game, so Polk received the backup spot in the win. Regardless of the status of the other RBs, Arian Foster he’ll see the bulk of the action and carries while he's healthy.

HOU RB Chris Polk - Week 6, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Jacksonville
Arian Foster and Alfred Blue accounted for 25 of the Texans 28 rushing attempts in the loss to the Colts last Thursday. Chris Polk was called on for just a five-yard carry and two catches for 17 yards. Polk is No. 3 on the RB depth chart and should not be taking up a fantasy roster spot.

HOU RB Chris Polk - Week 5, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Indianapolis
Even though the Texans were down for the entire game against the Falcons last week, Chris Polk received some garbage time touches and finished with 50 yards and his first TD of the season. Now Arian Foster is healthy, look for Polk to drop to the third RB option for Houston. He should be kept on the bench on Thursday night.

HOU RB Chris Polk - Week 4, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Atlanta
The Texans ground attack controlled the clock (and the game) in the win over the Buccaneers last Sunday, but Chris Polk had just five carries for five yards, as Alfred Blue was the main workhorse. With Arian Foster potentially back in the lineup, there is no reason for Polk to be taking up a roster spot.

HOU RB Chris Polk - Week 3, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Tampa Bay
While Ryan Mallett threw the ball 58 times last week in Carolina, the crowded Houston backfield saw Chris Polk lead the way with 14 carries. With the Panthers ahead for most of the contest, Polk ran for 38 yards and also had two grabs totaling nine yards. Right now, none of the Texans RBs are a good fantasy option, even against a Tampa Bay defense that’s allowing 114 rushing yards per game.
