Hopkins is battling a calf injury that caused him to miss practice this week. He has also been dealing with a toe injury in recent weeks that limited him in practice.
Despite playing in a depleted offense with myriad quarterback issues, Hopkins has still been one of the best players in fantasy football this season. In 15 games, Hopkins has racked up 96 receptions for 1.378 yards and 13 scores.
As bad as the Colts have been all over, Hopkins’ season is arguably the best by any NFL receiver this season, but it sadly ends before Week 17.
Fantasy Impact: Hopkins was set to face a Colts defense allowing the ninth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. With him out, that means the Texans will rely heavily on Braxton Miller and Will Fuller, making them viable fantasy options.
