Week 5 fantasy sits and starts for Texans versus Falcons

Week 5 is here and the Houston Texans are sitting at 2-2 for the season. The texans will try and make it 3-2 after Sunday but let’s take a look at a few players to start in fantasy football for Sunday.

Texans QB Deshaun Watson

Watson is a must start every Sunday. You have heard me on my “Don’t mess with Texans” fantasy football podcast say this repeatedly. Watson has thrown for six touchdowns and just one interception so for in 2019. The Falcons are ranked 22nd in points against, so Watson should have a nice day throwing the ball all over Atlanta’s defense.

 

Texans RB Carlos Hyde

Hyde should have a nice day considering the Falcons rank 24th in rushing touchdowns against. The former 49ers, Browns, Jaguars, and Chiefs running back should find the end zone not once but possibly twice on Sunday.

 

Falcons WR Julio Jones

It’s never a bad idea to start Julio ever Sunday. The former Alabama stud wideout should be able to eat against cornerback Johnathan Joseph on Sunday. 100 yards receiving and a score should not be out of the realm for Jones on Sunday.

 

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins

Just like Julio, Hopkins is a must start. Texans have to get DeAndre more targets and this Sunday I think that’s what happens. This game will be a shoot out and Hopkins should have a big day as well.

These are the four players who should have the greatest impact on fantasy football on Sunday. Make sure you follow me on Twitter @ChrisNallsNFL and ask me some fantasy football questions.
