Fantasy Football Player Notes
2020 PPR Rest of Season Rankings
|
31.
David Johnson
RB - (vs . TEN)
Johnson has been placed on IR after suffering a concussion in Week 9. He'll miss a minimum of three games. It's unusual for a player to be ruled out for three games so quickly after a concussion, but given where the Texans are in the standings, they're likely just being overly cautious. Stash Johnson if you can, but he won't be able to help you until at least close to the fantasy playoffs.

43.
Brandin Cooks
WR - (vs . TEN)
Cooks played through his quad injury during the opening game against the Chiefs, but his snaps were limited and he had minimal production. If the Texans were just being cautious with him and he's a full-go for Week 2, then he should be a fine WR3 option. But, until he's fully recovered from his quad injury, he's not someone to target.

Keke Coutee
WR - (vs . TEN)

79.
Phillip Lindsay
RB - (vs . TEN)
With Melvin Gordon potentially facing a suspension after being charged with a DUI, Lindsay looks likely to inherit a large workload, similar to what he saw last year. Now past his bye with Drew Lock back, Lindsay could find himself in RB2 territory until Gordon returns, if he does this year.

175.
Jordan Akins
TE - (vs . TEN)
Akins caught both of his targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in Week 1 against the Chiefs. He splits time with Darren Fells and is unlikely to be heavily involved, but in deep leagues with bonus points for tight ends, he could be a bench option that fills in during bye weeks.

191.
Mark Ingram II
RB - (vs . TEN)
Ingram has been placed on the COVID-19 reserve list after testing positive for COVID-19 and will miss at least Week 12's game against the Steelers. He had little-to-no fantasy value regardless, so there's no reason to hold him in redraft formats.
