Xavier Hutchinson News
Saturday, October 17, 2:54 AM
Houston Texans wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson has at least three catches in every game for the Texans this season and had four catches for a season-high 65 yards last week against the Titans. This week against the Jaguars, though, his role could be smaller due to the arrival of Marvin Harrison Jr. in a trade from the Cardinals. Harrison will make his debut, but he'll likely only have a limited package of plays as he ramps up with his new squad. Hutchinson had already seen his snap share dip under 50% in his last two games, and now his playing time will be squeezed even more. He is RotoBaller's No. 69 WR this week in his international matchup with the Jaguars in London, leaving him on the bench or the waiver wire in most standard-sized leagues this week. He could remain involved, but his shrinking role makes him a high-risk start.

Roman Wilson News
Saturday, October 17, 11:50 AM
The Pittsburgh Steelers placed Roman Wilson (dislocated finger) on Injured Reserve, which will sideline him for at least the next four weeks. Wilson is the Steelers' third-leading receiver, recording 14 receptions for 188 yards and a couple of touchdowns this season. With Wilson unavailable, that will likely mean more targets for rookie wide receiver Germie Bernard, who has totaled 13 receptions for 140 yards on the year. Additionally, fellow Pittsburgh wide receiver DK Metcalf did not practice on Friday due to an illness. Bernard is RotoBaller's 36th-ranked wide receiver and is projected to score nine fantasy points against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this week. Tampa Bay has allowed an average of 226.6 yards passing per game this season, which is middle of the pack. During a win over the Dallas Cowboys last week, Tampa Bay gave up 316 yards to Dallas through the air, including a three-reception, 90-yard performance from WR3 Ryan Flournoy, which included a 48-yard reception.
