Week 9 of the 2025 NFL season rolls on and the action will continue with an AFC showdown featuring the Denver Broncos visiting the Houston Texans at 1 p.m. ET on FOX.

The Texans got back into the win column last week, handling the 49ers 26-15 to notch their third victory in their last four outings. Running back Woody Marks had another productive day at the office as he continues to be an important piece out of the backfield for Houston.

Below, we’ll go over Marks’ outlook in fantasy football for Week 9.

Fantasy Football analysis: Texans RB Woody Marks

Marks got a healthy dose of touches in last week’s victory over the Niners, toting the rock 11 times on the ground for 62 rushing yards and catching all four of his targets for 49 receiving yards. It marked the third time in the last four games where the rookie had recorded at least 10 carries it’s not a coincidence that the offense began to get to improve once the 1-2 punch of Marks and Nick Chubb got rolling.

The fourth-rounder has been a top-20 fantasy running back over the last two weeks and it appears that he’ll remain a vital part of the Texans’ offensive gameplan moving forward.

Start or sit in Week 9 PPR leagues?

Start. Marks continues to trend upwards and even against a tough Broncos defense, he should still get enough touches to be a solid start in fantasy this week. Give him the green light.

Start or sit in Week 9 Standard leagues?

Start.
