Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr., Texans WR Christian Kirk off injury report ahead of Week 3 matchup

Sep 19 · 5:17 PM EDT

Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. (wrist) is off the injury report and good to go Sunday.

Meanwhile, Texans WRs Christian Kirk (hamstring) and Braxton Berrios (hamstring) are both off the injury report and set to make their season debuts.

Fantasy Impact:

Brian Thomas should continue to be slotted in as a fringe WR1/2 play, with Christian Kirk is much further down the list as a WR4/5 as the ball continues to be spread around behind Collins.

Texans WR Christian Kirk misses second practice of the week

Texans second practice of Week 1.

I do not see Christian Kirk or Braxton Berrios.

Cam Robinson is back.

Related Players: Nico Collins, Jayden Higgins, Jaylin Noel

Fantasy Impact:

It's not looking great for Kirk to suit up for Week 1. We'll see how much Noel rotates into the slot, but it's probably best to keep our exposure to only Nico Collins until we see how the target share spreads out behind him. Collins is in easy WR1 consideration.

Texans Beat: Nico Collins, Christian Kirk have top two WR spots

The pecking order for Texans WRs as of right now.
Nico Collins and Christian Kirk got the two top spots.
Xavier Hutchinson appears to be the next guy up. But Jayden Higgins will rotate in there.
Same with Jaylin Noel.

Fantasy Impact:

The top-two names aren't really a surprise, but it gets interesting seeing Hutchinson's name mentioned as the team's WR3, a spot many assumed would go to Higgins. We reported a few weeks ago that Noel was a quality WR for the team, but there just wasn't a spot for him in the lineup, and that seems to remain the case. This could be a situation to keep an eye on, especially if Hutchinson continues to be mentioned as the WR3. It's hard to believe Higgins won't be among the team's top-three WRs at some point sooner than later.

Texans Beat: Tough for WR Jaylin Noel to get on field

Jaylin Noel: Can't really figure out how he gets on the field a ton right now.

Related players: Nico Collins, Christian Kirk, Jayden Higgins

Fantasy Impact:

The post went on to say with Kirk in the mix and Higgins ticketed for outside work, there isn't really a spot for Noel. However, the post went on to say there is confidence Noel is a good player who would shine if given opportunities in this offense. Right now, Noel seems more like a very late sleeper pick in redraft leagues, and a guy you maybe tuck away in dynasty leagues until he gets his chance. It could take an injury for Noel to get his chance, especially if Kirk continues to play well.
