Justin Britt Fantasy

The Houston Texans placed center Justin Britt (personal) on the Reserve/Non-Football Illness list on Tuesday. Britt has been away from the team for what head coach Lovie Smith has termed "personal reasons." It remains to be seen when the 31-year-old veteran will rejoin the team this year. He played all 70 of the team's offensive snaps in the Week 1 tie with the Indianapolis Colts, but he wasn't with the team for their Week 2 loss to the Denver Broncos. With Britt out last Sunday, Scott Quessenberry served as the starting center and played 100 percent of the offensive snaps against Denver.

The Houston Texans agreed to terms with offensive lineman Justin Britt and A.J. Cann on Monday, according to a source. Britt was signed for two years and $9 million. The 30-year-old former second-round pick of the Seattle Seahawks spent the first six seasons of his career in Seattle before sitting out in 2020. He played in 11 games for the Texans last year while dealing with a knee injury. Britt will be the team's projected starting center in 2022. Cann is joining the team on a two-year, $10.5 million deal. Also 30, Cann played the first seven seasons of his career for the Jacksonville Jaguars, primarily playing right guard. Both Britt and Cann are hoping to improve Houston's offensive line next season and beyond.

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.
