Texans TE C.J. Fiedorowicz Unlikely to Play Thursday Night

The Houston Texans had five players suffer concussions in their humiliating 29-7 blowout loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. 

Unfortunately, Houston is now playing in a short week with a game coming up against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday. That means all five of these players are unlikely to go. 

From a fantasy perspective, the focus has to be on 2016 breakout tight end C.J. Fiedorowicz, who was among those who suffered a concussion on Sunday. Texans head coach Bill O'Brien indicated Monday that he's unlikely to go against Cincy. With fellow tight ends Ryan Griffin and Stephen Anderson also in the protocol, the Texans find themselves in a less-than-ideal position here.
