None of this is good news for Ja'Marr Chase investors, who need the receiver to rebound from a 2-catch, 12-yard, WR86 finish in Week 1.

Chase must bounce back from WR86 Week 1 vs. improved Texans defense.

Chase needs to rebound from a disappointing Week 1 finish of 2 catches, 12 yards, and WR86 ranking. He faces a tough Houston defense led by edge rushers Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson Jr. that is likely to rebound after a rough Week 1 performance. Chase's Week 2 outlook is clouded by his quarterback's back tightness and the Texans' defensive strength.
