Dalton Schultz Dealing with Shoulder Issue, Expected to be Fourth Option in Texans' Passing Game

AutoDraft Pro AI

Dalton Schultz was listed as limited on Monday's estimated injury report due to a shoulder issue. The tight end, who re-signed with the Houston Texans on a three-year, $36 million contract in March, had a statistically similar first year in Houston (59 catches, 635 yards, 5 TDs) to his last three campaigns in Dallas. While C.J. Stroud's preference for downfield passes elevated wide receivers, Schultz has a long track record of success and a skilled quarterback, making him a recipe for respectable fantasy production, even as the projected fourth option behind Nico Collins, Stefon Diggs, and Tank Dell. His past includes setting career highs with 808 yards and eight touchdowns in 2021 with Dak Prescott.
