Brandin Cooks

Davis Mills' struggles have had a trickle down effect on Brandin Cooks' fantasy production. Because even though the Texans No. 1 wide receiver is seeing high-end 28% target share, he ranks outside the top-50 in half-point scoring. In fact, no WR has performed worse versus expectation than Cooks (-17.8) as his efficiency numbers have suffered to open the year. But I'd expect somewhat of a bounce-back effort from the savvy veteran versus a reeling Chargers defense that has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to WRs this season.

Brandin Cooks logs just two receptions in Week 3

Brandin Cooks caught just two of his seven targets for 22 yards in a loss to Chicago in Week 3.

Fantasy Impact

Cooks logged the most targets of an Houston player Sunday. Davis Mills’ first interception of the day was intended for Cooks, which if caught would have boosted his fantasy day. The Texans will look to get into the win column for the first time as they take on the Chargers in Week 4.
