Will Fuller

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport has reported that Will Fuller did, in fact, suffer a torn ACL during their Week 8 win over the Dolphins.

Fantasy Impact

It's the news we were all expecting, but it doesn't make it any less devastating. Seeing that his injury happened right around the same time of year that Deshaun Watson's did last year, he should have a chance to make it back by the start of the 2019 season, though it'll be close. This will have a butterfly effect throughout the entire offense, as Watson hasn't posted nearly as good of numbers with Fuller out of the lineup. Not that he needs them to be productive, but DeAndre Hopkins is going to see 10-plus targets every game. And then Keke Coutee will have a bigger role upon returning from his hamstring injury. Don't expect the world and drop proven players for him, but he should offer weekly WR4 value in PPR leagues moving forward.

The Texans believe that Will Fuller tore his ACL on the play where he injured his knee in Thursday night's win over the Dolphins, John McClain of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Fantasy Impact

Fuller will have an MRI on Friday to confirm the nature of his injury. Fantasy owners should keep an eye on updates. If Fuller is out long term than Keke Coutee would be someone to pick up as he should move into the WR2 role.

Will Fuller suffered a knee injury in the fourth quarter of the Texans' Week 8 contest against the Dolphins. He will not return.

Fantasy Impact

Fuller was ruled out pretty quickly, but it could simply be because the game was nearly over and the Texans had a comfortable 19-point lead. Keep an eye on Fuller's status as we head into the weekend. If he misses any time, Keke Coutee would see a bump in targets if he returns to action. If Coutee remains out, it's ugly beyond that, so we could see the tight ends getting more involved.

Will Fuller brought in six of eight targets for 68 yards in the Texans' 20-7 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

The Jaguars were focused on shutting down DeAndre Hopkins which meant more looks for Fuller. The third-year receiver should see plenty of targets on Thursday night when the Texans face the Dolphins and Fuller should be started in most fantasy formats.

Will Fuller caught two passes on three targets for 33 yards as the Texans defeated the Bills by a 20-13 score on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

The Bills defense were able to handle the Texans offense and Fuller as he only saw three targets in the win. In most weeks when the Texans have the passing game going Fuller should see plenty of targets but he may struggle again in Week 7 when the team faces the Jaguars.
