Quarterback
Carson Wentz: Wentz had his best game with the Colts on Monday night, throwing for 402 yards and 11.5 yards per pass attempt with a pair of touchdowns. It was Wentz’s first QB1 scoring week, but he has now had 17 or more fantasy points in every game except for one, the game he played with two injured ankles against the Titans.
The Texans have only allowed one QB1 scoring week through five games and it came attached two rushing touchdowns, but they also are not a team to run from, ranking 22nd in completion rate (68.3%), 24th in yards allowed per pass attempt (8.0 Y/A) and 16th in yards per completion (11.7 yards). Wentz has shown he is a high-floor quarterback and is in the streaming conversation as a high-end QB2 option.
