Schultz largely played as the outlet with the return of Nico Collins, matching both Collins and Tank Dell in targets but lagging behind the top duo in yards per reception. Schultz could return sporadic fantasy utility down the stretch but remains an inconsistent option now that Collins is back from an extended absence.
Schultz and the rest of the Houston offense started hot, jumping out to a commanding 23-7 lead in the first half. They would ultimately squander the lead and fall to 6-4 even though their defense picked off Lions quarterback Jared Goff five times. They can rest on the fact they still maintain a two-game lead on the division after every AFC South team lost in Week 10, but the organization surely expected more from the opportunity against the Lions. Up next for Schultz and the Texans are the Cowboys in Week 11.
C.J. Stroud was attempting to get the football to Schultz, but thanks to in inaccurate effort from Stroud and a horrible effort from the Houston offensive line, the results were limited, to put it nicely. Still, it's nice to see the 6-foot-5 tight end continue to see a healthy number of targets, and he'll be a high-end TE2 for Week 10 against the Texans even if Nico Collins (hamstring) returns to take some touches.
Woods received the fourth most targets in this contest behind Tank Dell (nine) and Dalton Schultz and Dare Ogobungwale each receiving three. The wideout made a nice catch on a 32-yard reception near the end of the contest, but was mostly a non-factor. Woods is a high-risk, medium-reward option in this Houston offense, and that will continue in Week 10 against the Lions.
