4 years agoDetroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. will go up against a Texans Defense on Thanksgiving that is giving up the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing receivers this season. As of now, the Lions offensive weapons are banged up and the veteran Jones may be tasked once again with picking up the slack. The Texans have allowed five 100-yard receiving games this season and the Lions have health questions currently with Kenny Golladay, Marvin Hall, D'Andre Swift, Danny Amendola and T.J. Hockenson. Jones is not having an elite season but could surprise, especially in PPR leagues, to kick off the Thursday slate of games in Week 12. In the last three games with Golladay injured, Jones has 15 catches on 20 targets for 190 yards and two touchdowns.--Joey C - RotoBaller
