Justin Britt Fantasy

Houston Texans center Justin Britt (knee) is expected to be able to play against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 13. Britt was designated for return from injured reserve last week after being sidelined by a hyperextended knee. The starting center for Houston was replaced in the lineup by rookie Jimmy Morrissey, who will now return to a reserve role. Britt's return will be a boost for the Houston offensive line and the running game. Right tackle Charlie Heck told reporters, "He kind of brings a consistency to the o-line, having that veteran in the middle. That's been great for us this week." The Texans will look to pick up their third win as they host the Colts in Week 13.

The Seattle Seahawks are prepared to release center Justin Britt, a move that would save them around $8.5 million in salary cap space. Guard D.J. Fluker announced he was released on Sunday, a move that saves around $3.6 million. Britt missed the last eight games of 2019 with a torn ACL. With him on his way out, it'll be either B.J. Finney or Joey Hunt starting at center in 2020. Fluker, a former first-rounder of the Chargers in 2013, has battled injuries for most of his career. Seattle has plenty of options at guard moving forward, and it sure looks like they might make a run at re-signing defensive end Jadeveon Clowney with the money they save with these two cuts.

The Seattle Seahawks only had one above-average lineman in 2016, and by re-signing center Justin Britt, they hope to hang on to him for at least a few more years. Notorious for their low spending on the offensive line, the three-year extension signed by Britt on Thursday will be a blessing for Russell Wilson and the Seahawks. Britt was the only member of the Seattle offensive line to log a ProFootballFocus grade above 70 in both run and pass support last season, and he allowed no hits on Wilson for the entire year.
