Houston Texans wide receiver Cecil Shorts have been ruled out for Week 8. He is dealing with a hamstring injury and is not close to returning. Nate Washington has thrived in his absence.
Fantasy Analysis:
Washington has been surprisingly good when healthy this season. Keith Mumphery has seen the biggest increase in snaps with Shorts out. The man we all want to see get more snaps is Jaelen Strong , who caught two TDs in his first action of the season with both Washington and Shorts sidelined.
