BREAKING NEWS: Texans, WR Andre Roberts agree to deal, fantasy football impact

The Houston Texans signed WR (and special teamer) Andre Roberts to a two-year deal Monday, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelisserio.

Roberts, 33, has spent the last two years with the Bills and has also been with Arizona, Washington, Detroit, Atlanta and the Jets in an 11-year deal that stretches back to when he was a third-round pick in 2010. He’s made the Pro Bowl as a return specialist each of the last three seasons.

Fantasy slant: Roberts’ usage as a wide receiver has slowed to a crawl over the last four seasons. Roberts has not surpassed 80 yards receiving total in any season since 2016. He has, however, excelled as a returner, which is the role he will fill in Houston. Roberts led the NFL in kick return yardage (1,174) in 2018 and yards per return (30.0) this past season. – Derek Brown
