Notes for Player Combination

Expert
Andrew Erickson FantasyPros	No. 1-highest scoring projected DST after finishing as the DST2 in 2025. Third-fewest PPG allowed. The Texans have been a top-5 fantasy unit for two straight seasons. They do draw two tougher matchups to start the year, versus Buffalo and Cincinnati.	The Chargers will take on the Arizona Cardinals and the Las Vegas Raiders to start the year. Best schedule for any DST. Draft them and start the Bolts with confidence through the first two weeks of the 2026 season.
