Houston Texans vs. Tennessee Titans: 5 players to watch
Will Fuller is just one player that you need to watch during the Houston Texans’ week four game.
The Houston Texans have a huge divisional match-up against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.
I’ve picked out five players for you to keep an eye on.
Delanie Walker
Titans’ tight end Delanie Walker is one of the top tight ends in the NFL. Through the first three weeks of the season, Walker has 15 receptions for 168 yards and zero touchdowns.
We saw the Texans’ secondary give up big plays last week against the New England Patriots as we watched tight end Rob Gronkowski have a big day.
Just like last week, if the Texans are going to have any chances of winning this game, they will need rookie linebacker Zach Cunningham to do his job when covering Walker.
Will Fuller V
Of course this is Will Fuller’s first game action since last season. He was never able to play in the preseason, since he suffered a broken collarbone in early August, so he may be rusty.
Honestly, I just want to see if Fuller can hold onto the football. He dropped way too many passes as a rookie.
D’Onta Foreman
Texans’ head coach Bill O’Brien says that rookie running back D’Onta Foreman is a three-down back. Is this him hinting at Foreman possibly getting more carries? Could he out touch Lamar Miller? We’ll have to wait and see.
So far, foreman hasn’t outplayed Miller this year, so I don’t see why he should get more carries.

DeMarco Murray
The Titans are a run-first team. So if the Texans are going to slow their offense down, they will need to shut down running back Demarco Murray.
Houston did a nice job of limiting the Patriots to 53 yards on 19 carries last Sunday.
Jonthan Joseph
Houston cornerback Jonathan Joseph and the Texans’ secondary looked really bad last week as the Patriots and their receiver’s picked them apart.
Joseph and the rest of the Texans’ secondary have to get on the page.
With Joseph being a veteran, they need him to step up as a leader.
