Houston Texans quarterback Joe Webb (foot) will likely be placed on the Injured Reserve, ending his season before it began. Webb was expected to be the team's third quarterback and also contribute on special teams, but now it looks like Houston will stick with Deshaun Watson and A.J. McCarron at the position. This news opens up a roster spot somewhere else on the Texans roster, which could be used to bolster their depth at one of the skill positions. Head coach Bill O'Brien mentioned on Friday that the Texans could keep up to seven receivers, for instance.
Houston Texans quarterback Joe Webb left Thursday's preseason loss to the Rams with a foot injury that some have called "serious," placing huge doubts on his ability to be Houston's third quarterback. With A.J. McCarron having just recovered from a thumb injury, it's possible we see the Texans roster just two quarterbacks depending on the severity of the Webb injury and whether or not he winds up on IR. Webb wasn't going to be a fantasy relevant player this year unless disaster struck in Houston, but the lack of depth at the passing position will make it harder to stay afloat if disaster does arrive.
Houston Texans quarterback Joe Webb had a rough one in Saturday's preseason loss to the Dallas Cowboys, going 8-for-21 passing the ball for 62 yards and a pair of interceptions. He added 25 yards on four carries as well. Webb's going to be Houston's third quarterback once A.J. McCarron is back, so he doesn't have any fantasy value heading into the season and shouldn't be rostered anywhere, but he will likely see major minutes again when Houston hosts the Rams in the preseason finale. Webb's a risky but potentially rewarding DFS option for the last week of preseason action.
Houston Texans quarterback Joe Webb once again saw a heavy workload in a preseason game, entering for Houston's second offensive series and playing into the fourth quarter in Saturday's preseason win over the Detroit Lions. Webb was 14-for-25 passing the ball for 186 yards, a touchdown, and an interception. While the veteran won't see regular season action under center unless something goes very wrong, he's going to remain a top option for preseason DFS players for Houston's final two preseason games.
With Deshaun Watson sitting out, A.J. McCarron injured, and Jordan Ta'amu just signed yesterday, Houston Texans quarterback Joe Webb did something you rarely see in the preseason: he quarterbacked an entire game. Webb was 25-for-40 throwing the ball for 286 yards, a touchdown, and two picks. Ta'amu will likely play in the next one, but Webb's still got a chance to be the best preseason DFS quarterback option there is based on how much he's on the field, especially when you factor in that he added 47 rushing yards on six carries.
The Houston Texans re-signed quarterback Joe Webb on Sunday, according to his agent, David Canter. Webb will join Brandon Weeden as the backups to Deshaun Watson. Webb is completely off the fantasy radar.
Houston Texans quarterback Joe Webb put up efficient numbers in the team's preseason finale on Thursday as the veteran passer tries to guarantee himself a spot on the team's final roster. Webb was 11-for-18 from the field for 136 yards and added five carries for 28 yards. He didn't turn the ball over. Webb can contribute on special teams as well for the Texans and could have some fantasy value if anything happens to starting quarterback Deshaun Watson. Though Brandon Weeden will open the season as the backup, Webb's game fits more stylistically with what Watson brings. He isn't fantasy relevant at this point, but his versatility could come in handy for the team if injuries do strike.
Free-agent quarterback Joe Webb signed with the Houston Texans on Thursday, according to his agent. Webb has attempted only 159 passes in his five seasons in the NFL with the Vikings, Panthers and Bills, and will compete with Brandon Weeden for backup duties behind starter Deshaun Watson. Webb has zero fantasy value heading into 2018.
Buffalo Bills quarterback Joe Webb was a surprising participant in the Bills Week 14 victory against the Colts after starter Nathan Peterman(concussion) left the game due to a hit to the head. Webb completed two of six passes for 35 yards but did manage 27 yards on the ground as well. Neither team could get anything going through the air due to the blizzard-like conditions throughout the game, and Webbisn't the best option to get the passing game going. With Peterman in the concussion protocol and the team's intentions with Tyrod Taylor(knee) unclear, it is possible that Webb sees action again in Week 15. That said, he is not fantasy relevant.
