Ryans said there wasn't enough time for them to clear the protocol, according to the post. This isn't a surprise and was the likely outcome for Stroud, but it's at least nice to know well in advance of Thursday's game. Mills will get the start again this week, but it looks like Stroud has a good chance to be back for Week 13, which is an away game at the Colts.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Stroud's chances of being cleared in time to play this week are hampered by the fact that Houston will be hosting the Bills on Thursday night. Mills has quarterbacked the Texans to two straight wins, the story pointed out, and it looks like he'll get another start in Week 12.

Schultz has 13+ half-PPR points in three of his last four games, so he would be in streaming considerations if he does play, which looks like a strong possibility at this point.
