Former Notre Dame Fighting Irish receiver Will Fuller V has been out with a hamstring injury since getting hurt in Week 7, but the speedy receiver is nearing a return for the Houston Texans.
After a bye week last week, Houston reported that Fuller is a limited participant in practice on both Wednesday and Thursday, ahead of the team’s Week 11 matchup with the Ravens.
#Texans Injury Report:
Limited: LB Dylan Cole (knee), WR Will Fuller V (hamstring), S Tashaun Gipson Sr. (back/wrist), G/T Tytus Howard (knee), CB Bradley Roby (hamstring), L. Laremy Tunsil (shoulder)— 105.7 The Fan (@1057TheFan) November 14, 2019
Fuller is Houston’s primary deep threat, recording 34 receptions for 450 yards and three touchdowns on the season. Drops have continued to plague the speedy receiver, but his rapport with Deshaun Watson will be a welcome boost for this Houston offense.
Fuller is in his fourth NFL season, all spent with Houston after they plucked him in the first round of the 2016 NFL draft.
Fuller was a monster in college, recording back-to-back 1,000 yard receiving seasons as a sophomore and junior, and totaling 30 career touchdowns.
Although he has yet to find that level of success in the NFL, he is liable to break out in any given week, and will help the Texans the rest of the way as soon as he is healthy.
