Kenny Stills Week 8 Outlook -

We know that Will Fuller is going to miss a few weeks with what's being described as a severe hamstring injury, which means Stills walks into two wide receiver sets with Hopkins. His average depth of target has been close to Fuller's anyway, so it should be a natural transition. It's not likely he gets all of Fuller's target share, but Fuller had seen at least six targets in five straight games, so there's a big void to fill. Stills filled his role in last week's game and totaled five targets, four receptions, and 105 yards. He didn't find the end zone, but it's good to see the targets in an abbreviated game. He's going to see a lot of Daryl Worley in this game, a cornerback who has been timed at 4.64 seconds in the 40-yard dash. You have to wonder if they move Worley to Hopkins' side and stick rookie Trayvon Mullen on Stills, as he's two-tenths of a second quicker. The Raiders have allowed an NFL-high 32 pass plays to go for 20-plus yards this year, which plays right into Stills' wheelhouse. He has the looks of a solid WR3 in this game, though there are many avenues the Texans have to success.
