Lamar Miller injury update: Texans RB questionable vs. Bengals, for fantasy owners
The Texans need Lamar Miller in the next two games to win the AFC South. Fantasy owners need him to win a championship.

Miller is in danger of missing the game due to an ankle injury that has kept him from practicing this week. It could have been just a precautionary measure to get Miller some more rest on a short week, but you should still plan on having a replacement if he is out.
Making matters worse is this game comes on Christmas Eve night, so if he is out, you may be left without a viable backup. Akeem Hunt and Alfred Blue have gotten the majority of touches behind Miller.
Fantasy Impact: If Miller is active, Yahoo! ranks him as the 12th-best running back in Week 16. He would face a Bengals team that ranks 26th in run defense and is allowing the 16th-most fantasy points to running backs.
As long as Miller is active, keep him in your starting lineup.
