Who Should I Start? Justin Watson or Lil'Jordan Humphrey

Wednesday, December 10, 5:03 PM

The Houston Texans have opened the practice windows for tight end Harrison Bryant (neck) and wide receiver Justin Watson (Achilles, calf). Bryant and Watson both returned to practice on Wednesday and could suit up on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, depending on how they do in practice this week. The 27-year-old Bryant should slide back in alongside Cade Stover as the Texans' primary backup tight ends behind Dalton Schultz. Bryant played 25.7% of the snaps on offense and recorded two catches for seven yards on six targets over eight games before his injury. Watson played in the first two games this season before being placed on Injured Reserve. The 29-year-old had a role in the offense, playing 49.1% of the snaps and hauling in three of his four targets for 30 yards. It remains to be seen how he'll be integrated back into the offense with the emergence of rookie Jayden Higgins in recent weeks. Neither Bryant nor Watson profiles as a fantasy option worth considering in most leagues.

New York Giants wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey has appeared in two games this season, recording four catches for 55 yards on 10 targets. All four of his catches and eight of his targets came in Week 6 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Humphrey and the Giants will face Philadelphia for the second time in three weeks in Week 8. However, New York will have wide receiver Darius Slayton back on the field after Slayton missed Week 6 due to a hamstring injury. Slayton's return to the lineup appears likely to relegate Humphrey to a minimal role in the Giants' offense. Humphrey does not project to provide fantasy-relevant production in Week 8 and should be avoided by fantasy managers.
