Dalton Schultz injury update: DNP Wednesday with quad issue, Week 7 vs. Giants

Schultz didn't practice Wednesday due to a quadriceps injury, per RotoWire.

By Cole Hartwell

Dalton Schultz didn’t practice Wednesday due to a quadriceps injury, according to RotoWire. Underdog NFL also reported that Schultz didn’t practice Wednesday with a quad issue.

What happened

Schultz was sidelined Wednesday with a quad problem, as RotoWire reported. The Texans host the New York Giants in Week 7 on Sunday, October 25.

Context

Schultz has 55.7 PPR points through six games this season, with 37 targets, 28 receptions and 277 receiving yards. That is 9.3 PPR points per game. He is the Texans’ TE1 on the depth chart and is projected for 8.4 PPR points in Week 7.

In Week 6, Schultz scored 7.3 PPR points with four receptions for 33 yards on six targets. In Week 5, he had 6.0 PPR points with three catches for 30 yards.

Depth chart

Foster Moreau is the Texans’ TE2. He has 36.2 PPR points in six games, with 11 receptions for 72 yards and three touchdowns on 14 targets. Moreau is projected for 3.1 PPR points in Week 7.

Cade Stover is TE3. He has 4.3 PPR points this season with two catches for 18 yards.

What’s next

Schultz’s Week 7 game is at home against the New York Giants on Sunday, October 25.

Dalton Schultz (quad) doesn't practice Wednesday.

🏈 Fantasy impact

If Schultz misses Week 7, Foster Moreau would likely see more targets. Moreau has been more touchdown-dependent, with three scores on just 11 receptions. He would be a low-end streaming option against the Giants. Schultz managers should monitor Thursday and Friday practice reports before making lineup decisions. Stover is unlikely to be fantasy-relevant even in a larger role.
