Royce Freeman News
Houston Texans running back Royce Freeman completed his sixth NFL season with his third NFL team, rushing the ball 41 times for 117 yards with a fumble, adding six receptions for 33 yards. The 26-year-old only played in the final four contests, helping to fill in for Dameon Pierce, who missed time due to injury. In Week 18, he had seven carries for 15 yards and one reception for two yards against Indianapolis. The former Panther is set to become a free agent this offseason, meaning he'll be searching for a new home as a depth piece. He's unlikely to be a factor in fantasy football outside of injury, making him a stash in only very deep dynasty leagues.
Houston Texans running back Royce Freeman has seen an unlikely increase in his role over the last few weeks, making his season debut in Week 15, when he had 11 carries for the Texans. The veteran back should get a handful of touches in Week 18 against the Colts, but after averaging under three yards per carry in the last two games, there's not much fantasy upside for Freeman. If you want to throw a dart at him in DFS since the Colts rank 23rd in the NFL in rushing yards allowed per game, then go ahead, but if you're playing for a title in a season-long league, Freeman probably shouldn't be on your radar based on how the last two weeks have gone.
Houston Texans running back Royce Freeman saw plenty of touches last week against the Titans, with 16 carries for the veteran back. But Freeman, who has taken over as the team's lead back over the past two games, only managed to produce 32 rushing yards on those attempts. There's not likely to be much running room for Freeman in this one, and the game script doesn't project to look good for him considering how well the Jaguars offense has played lately. He's a desperation RB4 option.
