2024 Fantasy Outlook
Skowronek saw his opportunities and targets dwindle dramatically in 2023, his lowest output of the three years he spent with the Rams. The emergence of Puka Nacua and Tutu Atwell, along with the continued presence of Cooper Kupp, relegated Skowronek to a heavy role on special teams. He's a versatile wideout who can be used in a variety of roles on offense along with his special teams experience. The Texans pounced when they heard the Rams were moving on from him. The 2021 seventh-rounder caught the eye of Houston head coach DeMeco Ryans when he was defensive coordinator for the 49ers. Skowronek will compete Noah Brown, Michael Woods, John Metchie and Xavier Hutchinson for depth roles. Read Past Outlooks
Ready for action
Skowronek is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Skowronek was placed on injured reserve with a shoulder injury prior to Week 3, and he'll be set for his first appearance since. He'll primarily play on special teams and is very unlikely to make any impact as a pass catcher.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
An unlikely candidate to lead the Rams' wide receiver corps in offensive snaps last season, Skowronek netted 680 reps in 14 games before a calf strain ended his campaign. Utilized in a variety of positions by coach Sean McVay, Skowronek wasn't able to translate the high usage in the stat column, putting up a pedestrian 39-376-0 line on 61 targets. Allen Robinson heading to Pittsburgh leaves Skowronek with a brighter outlook for 2023, as he has a chance to enter the upcoming season third on the depth chart behind Cooper Kupp and Van Jefferson and have ample opportunity to improve in Year 3.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Moved to Texans on Thursday
Skowronek was traded to the Texans from the Rams on Thursday, setting up a potential battle for a reserve receiver role with past and now current teammate Robert Woods, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Skowronek enjoyed his best professional campaign to date in 2022, when he mustered a 39-37-6 line across a career-high 680 snaps in what was Woods' first season away from the Rams after spending the previous five years in Los Angeles. The two players, teammates during Skowronek's rookie 2021 campaign, could now ultimately battle for Houston's No. 4 or No. 5 receiver job this summer.
