Stephen Anderson catches two passes against the 49ers.

Anderson was targeted six times in the game, but he had only two receptions for 16 yards. If Tom Savage (concussion) remains out moving forward, Anderson’s fantasy value would probably take a slight dip, as Savage said he likes throwing to the big tight end. Either way, Anderson isn’t a recommended fantasy option in standard leagues.

DeAndrew White catches one pass in Week 14.

With Bruce Ellington done for the season with a hamstring injury, White is getting an opportunity for the Texans. He was targeted six times in the loss to San Francisco, gaining 24 yards on his one reception. College football fans might remember White from his time playing at the University of Alabama, and he’s someone that might be able to carve out a role heading into 2018. He’s not a fantasy option yet, though.

Will Fuller V catches three passes in Week 14.

After a three-game absence because of a rib injury, Fuller returned against the 49ers and gained 26 yards on his three receptions. With a matchup against the Jaguars up next, you’re probably going to need a touchdown or big play for Fuller to deliver solid fantasy value in Week 15.

DeAndre Hopkins scores twice in Texans’ loss.

Hopkins drew another 16 targets against the 49ers, catching 11 passes for 149 yards and two touchdowns—though he did lose a fumble in the game. Starter Tom Savage unfortunately got hurt in the game and is in concussion protocol, but Hopkins still received a ton of targets with T.J. Yates at quarterback and ended up with another monster game. It really doesn’t matter who’s at quarterback for the Texans, as they’re going to pepper Hopkins with targets. Next week against the Jaguars might be a struggle, but Hopkins is still a good bet for another 10+ targets.

Andre Ellington gets four touches in Week 14.

Ellington had three carries for six yards and one reception (on two targets) for 16 yards versus the 49ers. He’ll mix in behind Lamar Miller in the backfield, but Ellington isn’t a highly-reccomended fantasy option.

Lamar Miller gets 19 touches in Week 14.

Miller again worked as a near-workhorse for the Texans, carrying 17 times for 53 yards while adding two receptions (on two targets) for seven yards. The 49ers did a pretty nice job of not letting the running game beat them, so Miller couldn’t find much running room throughout the game. Next week, Miller faces a Jaguars team that he had 96 total yards against in Week 1.

Kyle Juszczyk catches three passes in Week 14.

Juszczyk was a big weapon for Jimmy Garoppolo in the win over the Texans, catching three of four targets for 64 yards, including a long of 31 yards. Juszczyk isn’t a fantasy option, but he’s a big contributor to the Niners in real life.
