O.J. Howard
TE -
Week 17 Outlook
Availability
The Ravens worked out TE O.J. Howard.
Fantasy Impact
Howard was released by the Raiders last August. Baltimore is likely looking to add to its tight end room after losing Mark Andrews.
The Raiders waived TE O.J. Howard Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Howard was signed during the offseason to a one-year deal, but was a surprising cut this early in training camp. The 28-year-old played in 13 games with the Texans last season, tallying 145 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 10 receptions. Howard will likely get another opportunity from another team prior to the start of the season.
The Las Vegas Raiders are signing TE O.J. Howard.
Fantasy Impact
Howard has the chance to play a big role in the passing game for the Raiders after trading Darren Waller, while Foster Moreau remains a free agent. The former first-round pick has yet to top 600 receiving yards in a season but he could do so this upcoming season, especially if the Raiders don't bring in another receiving tight end.
O.J. Howard is officially inactive for the Texans’ Week 18 matchup against the Colts.
Fantasy Impact
Howard was listed as questionable for Sunday with a hip injury. The veteran tight end was able to practice in full Friday, but will sit out the Texans’ season finale. Fantasy managers should expect Brevin Jordan and Jordan Akins to see the bulk of the snaps at tight end.
O.J. Howard caught one of his three targets for nine yards in a 23-10 loss to Washington.
Fantasy Impact
Howard tied fellow tight end Jordan Akins with three targets on the day. The Texans continue to rotate all four tight ends in-and-out of the lineup, making all of them risky options for fantasy managers. The Texans will have a tough matchup in Week 12 against a stout Miami defense.
