Emari Demercado rushed seven times for 16 yards in Houston’s Week 10 loss to the Browns.

13 of those yards came on one carry. Demercado saw the bulk of the opportunities with Woody Marks (concussion) sidelined in the third quarter. Both Demercado’s history and the broader history of Texans running backs over the past several years would tell you there’s little fantasy value in him next week assuming that he becomes their main ballcarrier. Nevertheless, with six teams on bye, he’ll be a reasonable FLEX play against the Colts if David Montgomery remains sidelined.
