Terrible news for managers who own any Texan, let alone Owen Daniels. Daniels will have season ending surgery to repair a torn ligament in his knee. He was having an outstanding season for the Texans and damages the value of Matt Schaub, Andre Johnson, Kevin Walter, and Steve Slaton. Tight ends Joel Dreessen and James Casey will take his place. In allot of ways Freessen is allot like Daniels and does have 5 catches for 52 yards on the season.

Casey is also having arthroscopic surgery on his knee and isn't likely to be back till November 23. Casey has two catches on the season and got them both in week 8.

The final option is Anthony Hill, but I don't expect any real fantasy value for Hill.
