Fantasy Start or Sit Colts Texans: Arian Foster, Trent Richardson, Andre Johnson, Reggie Wayne, Ahmad Bradshaw Week 6 Options

Some fantasy football start or sit options for the Colts and Texans Thursday in Week 6 has Arian Foster, Trent Richardson, Andre Johnson, Reggie Wayne, Ahmad Bradshaw, Dwyane Allen, Andrew Luck, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Alfred Blue and DeAndre Hopkins as possible starter picks and this is a big game for both Indianapolis and Houston as they try and control the AFC South.

Foster is coming into the game after dealing with a hamstring injury, but he will be playing in the matchup. Foster was listed as probable for the game and while he missed practice this week, it mostly is because of the fast turnaround. Foster had his best game of the season last week and had 23 carries for a heavy workload and he should be doing the same against the Colts. Johnson is listed as questionable for the game and he also missed practice time, but all reports have him playing.

Trent Richardson and Ahmad Bradshaw will continue to split time, but for fantasy owners with the option, go with Bradshaw. Over the past few weeks Bradshaw has been getting more chances on a consistent basis and while Trent could be a solid play against the Texans, it's probably best to START Bradshaw for this game on Thursday. Alfred Blue is a sit option because Foster is playing and Hopkins should also be a START option, as he has been emerging as a strong receiver for the Texans.

Reggie Wayne and TY Hilton are very solid starter options for the game, as Luck and the Colts have been passing the ball a ton. This season Luck has 16 scores and just four picks and he also is on pace to set a career high in passing yards. Ahmad Bradshaw and Trent Richardson have been solid, but it's the passing game keeping the Colts going and that is where the points will be. Wayne and Hilton have been getting the most targets and while Hilton is getting more than Wayne, both players are START picks for Thursday night.

Dwayne Allen is another target that Luck likes and while he went to college with Coby Fleener, he has been much more on Allen in recent weeks. Allen is not a hard START in all leagues, but in 12 team deep leagues, he is worth a look after scoring his fourth touchdown last week against the Ravens. The Texans defense can be up and down around the TEs and there is a chance that Luck connects for a TD again.
