The Houston Texans continued their upward offensive trajectory in a massive way in Week 5, taking advantage of a depleted Baltimore Ravens defense. Yet, albeit a spectacular showing, the two-time reigning AFC South champions threw fantasy football managers for a loop with their backfield split.
It appeared that fourth-round rookie Woody Marks took over as Houston's lead running back in their 26-0 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 4. However, Marks reverted more toward his previous change-of-pace role as veteran offseason acquisition Nick Chubb reclaimed 1A duties in the Texans' 44-10 dismantling of Baltimore.
Marks was understandably the top priority on the waiver wire following his breakout 21-touch, 119-yard and two touchdown performance against the Titans.
