Andrew Luck rebounds late for strong fantasy football performance in win over Texans

Luck was in danger of a disaster fantasy performance, but turned things around in a hurry.

Thomas B. Shea

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck played arguably the worst first half of his NFL career against the Houston Texans on Sunday Night Football in Week 9, completing only three of his 12 passing attempts for just over 50 yards.

Luck rebounded, though, finishing the game with 271 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions despite completing less than 50-percent of his passes.

Fantasy spin: Luck was definitely off the mark early against the Texans, who stormed out to a 21-3 lead at halftime on Sunday night. But as he’s been known to do in his first two seasons in the NFL, Luck turned things around down the stretch, finishing with 21 straight points to give Indianapolis a comeback win.

Luck remains a consistent fantasy football quarterback, even with Reggie Wayne out for the season with a torn ACL. T.Y. Hilton stepped up in Wayne's absence, piling up over 100 receiving yards and catching three touchdowns.
