Dalton Schultz Can Be a TE1 vs. the 49ers

Saturday, October 25, 9:49 AM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz (back/shoulder) was limited in practice this week, but does not have an injury designation for Week 8. The veteran tight end will likely be a big part of the passing game with Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring) both ruled out. Last week, Schultz had a season-high nine catches for 98 yards against the Seahawks, and he has at least five catches in four straight games. He's a solid PPR contributor even though he is averaging under 10 yards per catch on the year and hasn't found the end zone yet this season. Schultz is the TE11 in RotoBaller's Week 8 rankings, and he can be a great bye-week fill-in as a fringe TE1 this week, with both a high ceiling and a high floor since he should be lined up for plenty of volume.

Matthew Golden News

Matthew Golden Officially Active for Sunday Night Football

Sunday, October 26, 7:23 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden (hip) is officially active for Sunday's Week 8 contest against the Pittsburgh Steelers. He had been listed as questionable after logging a limited practice on Friday. The rookie has ranked as the overall WR59 in PPR leagues this season with 18 catches for 249 yards, and he's still looking for his first career touchdown. Golden should deliver another top-60 finish on Sunday night, but it's worth noting that he does face added competition this week with Romeo Doubs still healthy and Christian Watson (knee) on track to make his season debut.
