Texans quarterback Case Keenum now has three straight games with fewer than 15 Fantasy points. He hasn't thrown a touchdown pass in the last two, and he's been intercepted in three straight. He was removed in the second half of a Week 11 loss for Matt Schaub, and while his Week 13 performance against New England was an improvement over his previous two games, it still wasn't enough to get him back to the 20-point neighborhood.
Week 14 brings a matchup with the Jaguars, who have allowed the third-most Fantasy points per game (22.3) to opposing quarterbacks this season. Keenum remembers the Jaguars well, as they held him to four Fantasy points (169 yards, no touchdowns, and an interception) in Week 12. In their last five games, the Jaguars have allowed quarterbacks to score 26 or more Fantasy points four times. Three quarterbacks have scored three touchdowns, one has scored two... and then there's Keenum, who just couldn't get anything going in Week 12.
Owners in two-quarterback leagues can look at this matchup and let it at least mitigate the memory of Keenum's Week 12 debacle -- Ben Tate was off, things were messy, Keenum was probably looking over his shoulder at Schaub. Still, Keenum should be on the waiver wire in standard leagues, as he brings considerable risk even in two-quarterback formats.
Case Keenum best left for deeper formats
