The Houston Defense has been a disappointment this year. It lost J.J. Watt to injury, and obviously that's a major factor. But it has a chance to reward fantasy teams this week.
Houston is in Jacksonville facing Blake Bortles, and in his young career this defense been all over the error-prone quarterback. In four games against the Texans, Bortles has been sacked 20 times, thrown 6 interceptions, committed 4 fumbles and had two of those turnovers brought back for touchdowns (while also taking a safety).
On the off-chance this defense is available in your league, good week to consider them for a fantasy lineup.
