The Houston Texans have upgraded their offensive weaponry to give second-year quarterback Davis Mills a fair crack at the starting job for the near future, but club hasn’t convinced fantasy owners any of their perimeter players are staples of weekly production.
According to Luke Easterling from the Draft Wire, not a single Texans player made their list of top fantasy football rookies for the upcoming season.
The lack of Texans rookies on the list is understandable. Second-round wideout John Metchie is coming off an ACL tear sustained in Dec. 2021 and may need to get up to speed to even be productive. Even when Metchie is healthy, he will be part of a passing attack that includes wideouts Chris Conley and Brandin Cooks along with an emphasis on tight ends Pharaoh Brown and Brevin Jordan in the red zone. Metchie won’t be the presumptive No. 1; he will be just another piece for Mills to use.
