Wells

Wells will remain behind Domanick Davis and Tony Hollings on the Texans depth chart at running back.

Wells, Tony Hollings, and Domanick Davis split first-team carries at practice. This could effectively squash the value of all three players, but we’d still start Davis over the other two.

Wells missed most of the preseason with an injury, so he feels his conditioning is lacking. He’s passed Tony Hollings for the No. 2 spot on the depth chart.

Since he’s playing more fullback than tailback, Wells has no fantasy potential this season.

They may not make the deal official until later in the week, but it’s clear he’ll be on the team. Wells can do a little of everything, so he basically replaces James Mungro (torn ACL). If Joseph Addai and Dominic Rhodes don’t pick up their production, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Wells become a bigger part of the offense.

While he might be the short-yardage back, we expect Tony Hollings to dominate carries. Wells is a questionable play in any format.

No word on the severity of Davis’ injury. Wells or Tony Hollings would have some value if it’s serious.

Wells should only be started if your are very weak at your RB position.

This is a slight buzzkill to Tony Hollings’ Sunday value. But we still expect them to split carries.

Davis was injured during the game, but was ineffective before leaving. Wells should now be a hot pickup in all fantasy leagues. Again.
