Regarding Texans WR Will Fuller’s rehab from double groin surgery in January, offensive coordinator Tim Kelly said, “All the conversations I've had with Will have been encouraging. He's been good in the meeting room, he's been great with his position coach, John Perry. So, we're encouraged by that.” (Aaron Wilson on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Fuller has been a full participant in the Texans virtual off-season program while also working out on his own on the side. With DeAndre Hopkins now in Arizona, Fuller has a legitimate chance to become a clear-cut WR1 for the Texans, even with the off-season additions of Brandin Cooks and Randall Cobb. Coach Bill O’Brien chimed in on Fuller’s status, saying, "He is doing great. Since we've left, I've been in touch with him a couple of times. He's working out. He looks good. We're excited about Will. We're excited about the 2020 Will. We feel like he's really working." When healthy, the speedster fifth-year WR can be a game-changer. In 11 games last season, he caught 49 balls for 670 yards and three TDs. Fuller is currently ranked #35 in FantasyPros expert consensus rankings, making him a WR3 in most leagues. He’s got as much upside as any WR3 in the NFL if he can remain healthy this season.
