Owen Daniels injury update: Probable status makes him a fantasy must-start

Houston Texans tight end Owen Daniels is expected to start this Sunday. We breakdown the fantasy implications.

Dale Zanine-US PRESSWIRE

Houston Texans tight end Owen Daniels is expected to start this Sunday versus the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Texans' pass-catching tight end has been suffering from a hip injury, but appears ready to go this weekend.

Daniels participated in practice this week and was listed as probable by the team. Houston will have him in a division match-up against the Jags, where Daniels could be expected to be an impact player.

Fantasy Analysis: Owen Daniels has been an absolute fantasy stud. Unlike a lot of other tight ends in this league, Daniels spends the majority of his time running routes. He is the team's secondary pass-catcher behind Andre Johnson.

With Daniels in the lineup, he is a fantasy must-start. On top of playing a porous Jags defense, Daniels is an elite TE1 in Week 11.
