Noel's efficiency on limited usage supports WR3 upside if Texans maintain passing volume vs. Giants.

Noel exploded for 20.7 points in Week 6 against Jacksonville despite his target rate dropping from Week 5 (16% to 13%), suggesting efficiency-based upside on limited usage. The Texans have increased passing over the past two weeks (PROE at +4.4% and +3.6%) with an upward trend since Week 3, and C.J. Stroud has been fifth in EPA per attempt to the middle of the field over his last three games. Noel's route share has consistently been above 50% as the Texans morphed into a pass-friendly offense. Over his last three games, Noel has been ahead of Nico Collins in YPRR in two of them and is right behind Collins in first-down generation rate (12.1% vs. 13.3%). Against the Giants in Week 7, if Stroud continues to pass, Noel should be a WR3 with upside, though the Giants won't provide the same offensive push as Jacksonville.
