Jaguars | Brian Thomas Jr. plays zero second-half snaps against the Texans Sun Oct 18, 12:57 PM
Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. played zero snaps in the second half of Sunday's game against the Texans after playing 15 snaps in the first half, according to ESPN Research. No reason for his absence after halftime was given.
| Footballguys view: Trade talks should heat up during the Jaguars' bye. They won't get what the Cardinals got for Marvin Harrison Jr. (Houston's second-round pick and a seventh-for-sixth swap), but teams that could have used Harrison but didn't want to pay that price -- perhaps the Colts or Chiefs -- might be interested in acquiring Thomas. |

Texans | Jawhar Jordan runs for 43 yards, one TD in win over Jaguars Sun Oct 18, 12:50 PM
Houston Texans RB Jawhar Jordan ran 6 times for 43 yards and a touchdown and also caught 1 pass for 7 yards on 1 target in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was projected for 0.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 11.5.
| Footballguys view: Jordan had a 100-yard game for the Texans last year, and he had the big play in the running game for Houston in this one. Jordan was on the practice squad, but he is a good early-down option for Houston and should cap Woody Marks' upside as a fantasy play until David Montgomery comes back. If Marks were to go down before Montgomery is healthy, Jordan would be worth rostering as the next man up. |

Jaguars | Hunter catches 4 passes for 59 yards, a touchdown in loss to Texans Sun Oct 18, 12:50 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars WR Travis Hunter caught 4 passes for 59 yards and a touchdown on 4 targets in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Houston Texans. He was projected for 0.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 13.9.
| Footballguys view: Hunter also had an end zone interception in the fourth quarter with the Texans up three. This was the kind of performance the Jaguars dreamed of when they moved up to the No. 2 pick to take Hunter last year. He might be inconsistent in non-IDP leagues, but now we can see what he is capable of with limited offensive snaps. He's worth carrying through the bye in redraft leagues if bench size allows. Congrats if you have him in IDP leagues where his stats count on both sides of the ball, especially if you can play him as a defensive back. |

Texans | Moreau catches 2 passes for 7 yards, two touchdowns in win over Jaguars Sun Oct 18, 12:50 PM
Houston Texans TE Foster Moreau caught 2 passes for 7 yards and two touchdowns on 2 targets in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was projected for 2.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 13.7.

Jaguars | Tuten runs for 39 yards, two receiving TDs in loss to Texans Sun Oct 18, 12:50 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten ran 12 times for 39 yards and also caught 4 passes for 48 yards and two touchdowns on 4 targets in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Houston Texans. He was projected for 13.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 22.7.
| Footballguys view: Tuten had a touchdown run nullified by a holding penalty and ended up scoring on the drive anyway via a reception. Chris Rodriguez Jr. actually ran the ball more effectively than Tuten, but Tuten's prowess as a receiver made him a strong RB1 play anyway. Consider Tuten a high-ceiling RB2 heading into his bye. |

Texans | Noel catches 4 passes for 107 yards, a touchdown in win over Jaguars Sun Oct 18, 12:50 PM
Houston Texans WR Jaylin Noel caught 4 passes for 107 yards and a touchdown on 4 targets in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was projected for 5.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 18.7.
| Footballguys view: Fantasy football math doesn't always make sense. The addition of Marvin Harrison Jr. immediately opened up even more big-play possibilities for Noel in the same way that trading him away made teams pay more attention to Michael Wilson. Noel gets the Giants before the Texans' Week 8 bye and should be on rosters in PPR leagues where bench size allows. |

Texans | Stroud throws for 312 yards, three touchdowns in win over Jaguars Sun Oct 18, 12:50 PM
Houston Texans QB C.J. Stroud completed 24 of 34 passes for 312 yards with 3 touchdowns and 1 interception in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was projected for 17.8 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 24.0.
| Footballguys view: Stroud's lone interception was on a forced throw into the corner of the end zone (picked by Travis Hunter!) or he would have had an even bigger day. Marvin Harrison Jr. was involved right away and helped open things up for the pass offense, and Nico Collins also drew two big pass interference penalties that didn't show up in the box score. The Texans pass offense is carrying the team with the running game and pass defense disappointing, but that's great news for Stroud's fantasy teams, as he has arrived as a high-floor QB1. |

Jaguars | Lawrence throws for 306 yards, four touchdowns in loss to Texans Sun Oct 18, 12:50 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence completed 24 of 41 passes for 306 yards with 4 touchdowns and 1 interception in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Houston Texans. He was projected for 17.8 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 28.3.
| Footballguys view: Lawrence's interception came on third-and-goal during a first-half drive, or he could have had an even bigger day. Lawrence has posted big numbers in each of the last two games against defenses that were highly regarded coming into the season. His early-season numbers were dampened by the Jaguars putting the pass offense in mothballs in the third quarter of two blowout wins. Now we are seeing Lawrence's true weekly ceiling in competitive games. The Texans pass defense isn't what we thought it would be, but the Jaguars pass offense is also better than we thought it would be, and we were optimistic about them. Travis Hunter caught his first touchdown of the season to make Lawrence's arsenal of weapons even deeper heading into the Jaguars' bye. |
