David Johnson Has Upside In Texans Debut
4 years agoHouston Texans running back David Johnson will make his Houston Texans debut on Thursday night when the Texans face the Kansas City Chiefs. K.C. allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2019, which could work out nicely for Johnson this week. Of course, Johnson looked fairly pedestrian down the stretch for the Cardinals last year and the Bill O'Brien era Texans haven't used their backs in the passing game a ton, so the downside definitely exists for Johnson. Still, he should be a solid RB2 this year if he's healthy and can serve as a reliable short-yardage receiver for Deshaun Watson as well.
