Who Should I Start? Taysom Hill or C.J. Stroud

Friday, November 7, 9:23 PM

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill has seen a minimal role in the offense since making his season debut in Week 5. Last week, Hill rushed the ball four times for 30 yards in their loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Normally, Hill doesn't see a ton of the field, but that could change in Week 10. Lead back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is currently questionable to suit up against the Carolina Panthers this weekend. That means, Devin Neal could be in line to start if Kamara is unable to go. It could also mean that Hill sees increased carries in the backfield. Fantasy managers should monitor Kamara's status and if he sits out then Hill could become a desperation option for this weekend.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol and was listed as a non-participant on the team's estimated injury report on Monday, according to DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN. There are still two days left for Stroud to make his way through the NFL's concussion protocol, but things are trending toward the 24-year-old missing a third straight game for the Week 12 game on Thursday night against the Buffalo Bills. The Texans will probably hold him out on a short week and hope that he can clear the concussion protocol next week and play against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts in Week 13. Davis Mills has gone 2-0 and thrown for 566 yards, three touchdowns, and an interception as the replacement for Stroud. He'll be a low-end QB2 streaming option again on Thursday if Stroud is ruled out by Wednesday.
