Stefon Diggs

Not much is known about Schultz's addition to the injury report, but a DNP to start the week is not a good sign for his Week 2 outlook. Schultz caught three passes for 16 yards in Week 1. With Stefon Diggs now soaking up targets alongside Nico Collins and Tank Dell, it's going to be hard for any fourth pass-catching option to make an impact. Brevin Jordan and rookie Cade Stover would both see an uptick in snaps if Schultz misses Week 2.

There was a lot of hype about the Texans offense this offseason and the unit lived up to it on opening day.

Though Dell's fantasy output paled in comparison to that of Nico Collins (6/117/0) and Stefon Diggs (6/33/2), his usage should quiet any of the offseason concerns about his playing time. Dell's seven targets were second on the team and good for a 22 percent target share. Per Pro Football Focus's Nathan Jahnke, he also ran a route on 87 percent of C.J. Stroud's dropbacks. That was exactly in line with the route rates of Collins and Diggs. Dell was subbed off more often the those two, but most of his sideline time came in running situations. Dell looks like a clear buy-low candidate heading into Week 2.

To no one's surprise, the addition of Stefon Diggs ate directly into Schultz's target share. He saw 17 percent of the Texans' targets in 2023. That number plummeted to nine percent in Week 1. With three elite receivers all deserving of targets on the field alongside him, Schultz is going to struggle to earn looks consistently. He will rank as a touchdown-or-bust TE2 for the Texans' Week 2 game against the Bears.

Though Stefon Diggs came down with both of the Texans' receiving touchdowns, 2023's breakout receiver still got home by maxing out his efficiency once again. Collins operated deep and over the middle of the field, resulting in multiple chunk plays including a 55-yard catch. He led the Texans with eight targets which was good for a 25 percent target share. Despite the Diggs touchdown bonanza, Collins has to be treated as C.J. Stroud's top receiving option. He will sit on the WR1/2 borderline for his Week 2 matchup with the Bears.
