The Houston Texans will visit the Tennessee Titans in Week 11. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding QB C.J. Stroud.
Is C.J. Stroud Playing in Week 11?
Stroud remains in the concussion protocol but was in the building Monday as Houston prepares for Week 11 against Tennessee, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
We’ll continue to monitor the Texans’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Stroud in Week 11?
Stroud (concussion) was unable to play last week, and it is hoped that he can return for this advantageous spot.
Hopefully, your fantasy fate is not riding on this situation.
Stroud has just two finishes better than QB14 this season, and while he looked good in the first matchup with the Titans (Week 4: 22-of-28 for 233 yards and two touchdowns), they were happy to run the ball 35 times in that blowout win, thus capping the fantasy upside of their QB.
If you’re intrigued by this matchup, embrace the low ownership projection, stack him with Nico Collins, and be on your way for DFS purposes. If we are talking about a season-long conversation, you would really have to be backed into a corner to go this way, even in a plus-matchup.
