2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Texans had a couple of productive defense tackles in 2023 but opted to move on from Sheldon Rankins and Maliek Collins. To help shore up the middle, Houston signed Fatukasi, a run stopper who played for Jacksonville last season and spent time with the Jets under current Texans defensive coordinator Matt Burke. Fatukasi doesn't get to the quarterback much and is expected to be part of a three-man rotation. Read Past Outlooks
Ruled out for Week 11
Fatukasi (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Dallas.
ANALYSIS
Fatukasi injured his foot during the Texans' Week 10 loss to the Lions, which has been severe enough for him to miss practice all week. The 2018 sixth-round pick will work on making his return for Week 11 against Tennessee on Sunday, Nov. 24. Kurt Hinish will join Tim Settle as the Texans' starting defensive tackles Sunday in Fatukasi's absence.

Fatukasi joined Jacksonville on a three-year, $30 million deal in March of 2022 and totaled 24 tackles (13 solo), 1.5 sacks and three passes defensed in 14 games. He should play a significant role in the defensive line rotation again in 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be seeking around $8 million
Fatuaksi is thought to be looking for around $8 million per season on his next contract, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.
ANALYSIS
Cimini is unsure if the Jets will be willing to meet that asking price for the 27-year-old defensive lineman. On one hand, Fatukasi didn't register a sack last season, and the Jets already are paying big money to Carl Lawson, Quinnen Williams and John Franklin-Myers on the defensive line. On the other, Fatukasi grades out as one of the league's best run defenders, and a New York defense that ranked among the worst in the league at defending the run last season can ill afford to lose one of its few bright spots in that regard.
