"DeMoated"... Slaton back in the saddle in Houston... From "The REAL Feed":
Report: Steve Slaton back in starting lineup for Houston Texans ESPN: NFL (21.11.2009 17:54) Steve Slaton will return as the starting running back for the Houston Texans, the Houston Chronicle reported Saturday. The Texans play host to the Tennessee Titans on Monday night.
Big news for fantasy owners. Steve Slaton is most likely out this week. Chris Brown has been made the starter, however, Slaton MAY play, but he is a game time decision.
"Officially" Slaton's status is in "question", but ultimately it'll be a game-timer... Brown would get the start in his absence... From "The REAL Feed":
This article indicates that Chris Brown will get the majority of the carries. It also mentions Chris Henry will be brought up from the practice squad. But it does not mention Ryan Moats will also be in the mix. What an ugly RBBC. I envision it being one of those where carries are split evenly amonst all of them.
