Kayshon Boutte Set for Smaller Role

Saturday, October 3, 4:44 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Kayshon Boutte hasn't had a huge game in his time with his new team, but now he won't have the pressure of trying to fill in for Nico Collins, who will be back from his hamstring injury. Boutte has only been marginally involved in the two weeks without Collins, catching three passes for 37 yards against the Bengals and two passes for 21 yards against the Colts. He played about 70% of snaps each week but hasn't yet shown a strong connection with QB C.J. Stroud. Boutte does remain a boom-or-bust deep threat with upside, especially as he grows in the offense, but he is only the WR62 in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings, making him a very high-risk starting option against the Cowboys.

Jalen McMillan News

Jalen McMillan Placed on Injured Reserve

Wednesday, September 30, 8:28 AM

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers placed wide receiver Jalen McMillan (knee) on Injured Reserve, which will sideline him for a minimum of four games, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. This was the expected outcome after the team announced that McMillan is dealing with a PCL sprain in his left knee. The 24-year-old is expected to miss around six to eight weeks. It is a big blow to Tampa's passing game, especially after they lost quarterback Baker Mayfield (thumb) for at least three weeks as well. McMillan had been dealing with knee issues since training camp this summer, and he missed the Week 1 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals before catching zero passes on just one target in Weeks 2 and 3. He can safely be dropped in most single-year leagues where he was rostered. With McMillan out for the foreseeable future, rookie Ted Hurst III becomes an intriguing waiver-wire pickup this week as the WR3 behind Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin Jr., although Mayfield's injury will certainly hurt Hurst's short-term upside.
