Texans' Laremy Tunsil (illness) inactive for Week 11
Houston Texans left tackle Laremy Tunsil (illness) has been ruled out for the team's Week 11 game against the New England Patriots.
What It Means:
Tunsil's absence could put quarterback Deshaun Watson under more pressure than usual in Week 11. The star left tackle has graded out as PFF's third-best pass-blocking tackle so far this season. Even with Tunsil, Watson has taken the fifth-most sacks in the league.
The Patriots defense isn't what it was during last year's historic run, but has still generated pressure on opposing quarterbacks at the third-highest rate (27% of snaps) so far this season. Without Tunsil, Watson will have to get rid of the ball quickly to avoid the Pats' pass rush. He's projected to score 22.1 fantasy points and has a $7,700 salary on FanDuel.
