Carlos Hyde A Risky Week 5 Start
5 years agoHouston Texans running back Carlos Hyde is Houston's No. 1 back, but after playing just 49 percent of the team's Week 4 snaps, the idea of trusting Hyde against the Falcons in Week 5 isn't a very appealing idea for fantasy owners. Hyde will lead the Texans in carries against Atlanta, but his per-play efficiency this season has been hit or miss. Take out his 25-yard carry against the Panthers, for instance, and Hyde had 11 carries for 33 yards. In an emergency, you can start Hyde, but you don't want to if you don't have to.
