Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn had made 11 of his 13 field goal attempts this season and all nine of his extra point attempts. He and the Texans return from their bye week to face the Seahawks on Monday night, so he'll be kicking outside in the weather. Both of his misses this year have come from over 50 yards out, but he has also converted five kicks of 50+ yards. In week 5, he went a perfect 3-for-3 with two field goals from over 50 yards and made all five of his extra points as the Texans rolled past the Ravens, 44-10. The Seahawks have been one of the 10 toughest matchups for kickers, but Fairbairn is still reliable enough to be the K9 in RotoBaller's Week 7 rankings.

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz has been a solid PPR producer over the last few weeks, but he isn't a great option against the Seahawks in the second game of the doubleheader on Monday Night Football. Schultz has 21 catches on 27 targets for 186 receiving yards this season, with at least three catches in each of his five games this season. He posted a season-high 60 yards in Week 5 after being held under 40 yards in his first four games, but he still hasn't found the end zone. He has exactly five catches in each of his last three games, giving him a high floor, since he does get so many consistent targets. Even with Christian Kirk (hamstring) out for this game, Schultz's upside is limited in Houston's current offense, which is why Schultz is the TE27 in RotoBaller's Week 7 rankings. He's a low-end option in most formats this week, even though the Seahawks have been a top-10 matchup for tight ends this season.

Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk (hamstring) won't play on Monday night versus the Seattle Seahawks. The wideout was limited during Friday's practice before not suiting up for Saturday's session. It's unknown how severe the injury is. However, it's not good news for a player who's struggled to stay healthy all year. Kirk has appeared in three games for the Texans this season, amassing 10 grabs (16 targets) for 109 yards. Fantasy managers will have to wait and see if he can get healthy enough to suit up against the 49ers in Week 8. In the meantime, Jayden Higgins and Xavier Hutchinson are in line to see more targets behind Nico Collins, giving both players a higher ceiling for Week 7.

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins had the best game of his rookie season just before the team's bye week, and he'll look to pick up where he left off as he returns to the field in Seattle on Monday night. He'll get a boost in Week 7 from Christian Kirk (hamstring) missing another contest, which could allow more targets to come his way. Higgins only had five catches in his first four games combined, but he had four catches on four targets for 32 yards in Week 5 against the Ravens. He played a season-high 56% of snaps in that blowout win, and could pick up Kirk's work this week as well. The No. 34 pick in last year's draft started the season with some fantasy buzz but hasn't been able to emerge as a weekly starting play in Houston's crowded receiver room. He has a very high ceiling but also has a very low floor since he has only one catch in three games this season. Weighing his risk and reward, he is a boom-or-bust longshot play at a flex spot this week, but he does have some intriguing upside as a rookie option down the road if he can build on his Week 5 success.

Houston Texans wide receiver Jaylin Noel could be lined up for more work this week when the Texans visit the Seahawks on Monday Night Football. Noel is the most direct replacement for Christian Kirk (hamstring), since both operate primarily out of the slot. Noel played 17 and 15 snaps the first two weeks of the season with Kirk out and worked his way up to 21 snaps in his last game before the Texans' bye. The fact that Kirk was ruled out in the first game after the bye week isn't a good sign for his availability going forward, especially since he also missed the first two games with a hamstring injury. Noel could be a natural replacement, and the third-round pick from Iowa State caught two of three targets for 13 yards and his first NFL touchdown in Week 5 before the bye week against the Ravens. He'll still be a long-shot flex play even with more work available, but he's a rookie to watch going forward if this Texans' offense can build on their 44 points against the Ravens.
