ANALYSIS: I was a bit scared off from Fitzpatrick’s thumb ligament issue, but he has continued to put up fantasy points in his past two games. Over the bye, he had surgery to repair the ligaments, but he is expected to play against the Texans. It’s a good thing for fantasy owners because it’s a pretty good matchup. The Texans give up the 10th most points to QBs, despite Titans' backup Zach Mettenberger scoring a lousy two points against them in Week 8.

Assuming Fitzpatrick plays and his hand is healed, he should be able to hit Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker all day. Expect something along the lines of 250 yards and two touchdowns for his fantasy output.
