Dare Ogunbowale
RB - Houston Texans
2025 Outlook
Availability
The Texans re-signed RB Dare Ogunbowale to a one-year, $2 million deal.
Fantasy Impact
Ogunbowale has been in a third-down and special teams role for Houston. He figures to remain in a similar role as he enters his fourth season with the Texans.
Dare Ogunbowale carried the ball twice for 12 yards while also catching his only target for six yards in the Texans' 31-2 loss to the Ravens in Week 17.
Fantasy Impact
Ogunbowale continues a nonexistent stretch out of the Houston backfield, logging three touches or less in each of the last 11 games. Fantasy managers can leave the running back off rosters in all formats, with a Week 17 contest against the Tennessee Titans up next.
Dare Ogunbowale failed to catch either of his two targets in the Texans' 27-19 loss to the Chiefs in Week 16.
Fantasy Impact
Ogunbowale was a non-factor as part of the Houston offensive attack Saturday, finishing last in touches out of the backfield in the loss. The running back offers streaky value as a pass-catching option out of the backfield but should remain off rosters barring an injury to starting running back Joe Mixon in all formats ahead of a Christmas Day Week 17 contest against the Baltimore Ravens.
Dare Ogunbowale carried the ball once for 11 yards in a 26-23 loss to the Lions in Week 10.
Fantasy Impact
Ogunbowale was barely used with Joe Mixon handling 25 of the team's 28 rushes. The veteran running back does not need to be on fantasy rosters heading into Week 11 against the Cowboys.
Dare Ogunbowale rushed for 30 yards on 15 carries in the Texans 23-20 win over the Bills. He caught 6-of-7 targets for 57 yards.
Fantasy Impact
Ogunbowale turned in his best game of the season as the backup to Cam Akers in Week 5. With Joe Mixon and Dameon Pierce due back soon, Ogunbowale will likely see a dip in playing time soon.
