By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Dec 1st 2022, 1:05pm EST

Chubb shook off the mini slump and got back on the 100-yard rushing horse last week against Tampa Bay. Chubb should steamroll the Texans this week. Chubb is the RB5 in fantasy averaging 19.7 touches and 108.3 total yards. He's fifth in red-zone touches, 14th in weighted opportunities, and second in total touchdowns. Over the last two weeks, his snaps (55-59%), routes per game (16.5), and route run rate (37.9%) have all trickled up. In Weeks 1-10, he averaged 10.9 routes per game and a 30.1% route run rate. Chubb is first in evaded tackles, fifth in breakaway run rate, and 16th in yards created per touch. Since Week 7, Houston is 31st in rushing yards per game, 26th in EPA per rush, and 32nd in explosive run rate allowed. Chubb is a high-end RB1.
