Fantasy Impact:

“They believe they can win with [Garoppolo], but it would take a big swing, like a Deshaun Watson effect here, to make that change,” Fowler said on SportsCenter over the weekend. For now, the Texans are intent on keeping Watson in Houston, so the NFL world should tentatively plan for Garoppolo to remain in San Francisco. With a healthy George Kittle, Deebo Samuel, and Brandon Aiyuk at his disposal, "Jimmy G" could be a streaming option at times in fantasy come 2021.
