Deji Karim, RB, Houston Texans (0.1 percent). As of this writing, it was unclear whether Arian Foster and/or Ben Tate would be able to play coming out of Houston's bye. Remember, Foster left Week 7's game early with a reinjured hamstring, while Tate broke four ribs in that same game. Tate claims he's going to play Sunday night against the Indianapolis Colts, while Foster has been more equivocal, but all this carnage explains why the Texans signed Karim, Ray Graham (0.0 percent) and Dennis Johnson (0.1 percent) during their off week. Karim is the veteran of the group, and he performed well for the Texans in the preseason, so if neither Foster nor Tate can play Sunday, he'd be my favorite for a featured role. But watch out for Johnson. He's a short guy at 5-foot-7, but he's got some thickness to him plus has real long speed. He was also known as a good pass-protector at Arkansas.



I'm on board with this until I hear further, If Tate and Foster don't play he could be a nice fill in...even if 1 plays he could still be a nice fill in at Flex this week for me with alot of my players being on BYE

When I saw the name, I thought "must be basketball because I don't know that name".

Never heard of the guy.

I don't know how you could put any faith in him.

When I read this I thought you must not play fantasy football then....well atleast outside of your son's kindergarden class.

C'mon man...gotta find the gems out there in week 9 before they happen. This could be a steal if Foster or Tate doesnt play. My guess Foster may play...but if Foster plays then Karim is getting the other carries. At any point when Foster comes up limping Karim steals the day...The guy was solid in Jacksonville for a few starts a couple of seasons....

Fantasy man..fantasy....

I just don't see it happening.

Besides, they will just be throwing it all over the yard. The Slap Dicks need AJ to fill in for the bye week douches.

Ben Tate has been practicing, albeit on a limited basis.

I don't think that you'll be happy with yourself if you play this Karim guy.
