Jordan Akins Fantasy

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins caught five passes for a team-high 61 yards, including the only receiving touchdown of the contest for the Texans. Akins has had some solid showings this year, but he's also had some games where he was a complete non-factor, and there's really been no rhyme or reason to which outcome we get each week. He's a streaming TE2 play, assuming you believe that his usage this week is a reflection of who new starting QB Kyle Allen intends to target the most.

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins could be a sneaky play in deep leagues or DFS this week against the Titans, who allow the second-most passing yards per game in the NFL. He's seen at least two targets in four consecutive games, and last week he caught three passes for a team-high 68 yards. It's hard to ever trust a Texans tight end, but with wide receiver Nico Collins (groin) not expected to play, someone has to catch some passes, right?

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins caught three passes for a team-high 68 yards in Sunday's loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. It was the first time this season that Akins has finished with more than 33 receiving yards and the second time he had more than two receptions. While it's good to see Akins have a nice game, his track record suggests that fantasy managers shouldn't expect this to be replicable, so go ahead and leave Akins on the waiver wire.
