The Houston Texans are 1.5-point favorites in Jacksonville this weekend. The line opened with a spread of zero, also known as a pick 'em, but has since risen to 1.5.
Texans tight end C.J. Fiedorowicz started the season slowly, catching only two passes in three games. In Week 4, Fiedorowicz took on a larger role in the offense and has excelled when the Texans have been favored this season.
In three games as a favorite, Fiedorowicz scored an average of 14.37 half-PPR points per game. To put that into perspective, Greg Olsen is the top tight end in fantasy scoring, and he is averaging 10.9 half-PPR points per game.
The total in this contest is a low score of 42.5 points, but Jacksonville Jaguars games tend to go over. Since the start of 2015, Jacksonville home games have gone over the total 60% of the time.
Priced at only $5,200, Fiedorowicz ranks 16th among tight ends on FanDuel. At that price, he is a safe start in both cash games and tournaments.
