Texans' David Johnson (illness) out for Week 13

The Houston Texans have ruled out running back David Johnson (illness) for Week 13's game against the Indianapolis Colts.

What It Means:

Johnson was a little banged up in the team's Week 12 game against the New York Jets, but it was an illness that kept him out of practice this week and will now keep him from playing in Week 13. He'll get another week to recover as he sits today's game out.

The Texans' backfield has slowly been whittled down to Johnson and Rex Burkhead, and will likely feature a heavy dosage of Burkhead in today's game against the Colts. Burkhead has a $5,300 salary on FanDuel and is projected to score 11.6 fantasy points against the Colts.
