Houston Texans
DST - Houston Texans
Availability
The Houston Texans D/ST forced a fumble, a pick, and two sacks in their 40-20 win against the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
The Texans' defense showed its strength once again, this time against the Cardinals' offense. They are an elite unit and are startable against nearly any opponent.
The Houston Texans D/ST had a great game against the Chiefs, sacking Patrick Mahomes twice and picking him off three times.
Fantasy Impact
The Texans made a bunch of stops that didn’t show up for fantasy points, blocking passes when the Chiefs could have converted on critical third downs. It was a great all-around performance by this unit, and they should be a great option next week against Arizona.
The Texans D/ST allowed 16 points on 281 total yards with one sack on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
It wasn't the best performance for Houston against a banged up Daniel Jones, but they did enough to win the game. They draw Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs next week.
The Texans D/ST allowed 19 points and 326 yards of total offense, recording a whopping eight sacks and three takeaways in Thursday's win over the Bills.
Fantasy Impact
Given that one of the Bills' two touchdowns came on a kick return, the Texans defense came away looking even more impressive. The unit harassed defending MVP Josh Allen throughout the night, coming away with two interceptions on top of the eight sacks. The Texans defense is legitimately elite, and it will need to live up to that billing once again in Week 13 at Indianapolis.
The Texans defense held the Titans to 13 points on 229 yards of offense, coming up with three sacks and one fumble recovery in Sunday's win.
Fantasy Impact
Houston's defensive unit turned in another strong effort Sunday, not allowing the Titans to find the end zone until late in the fourth quarter. The Texans feature one of the top-ranked defenses in the league, but it will have a much more difficult matchup coming Thursday against the Bills.
