Steps up after Al-Shaair ejection
Hewitt finished Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jaguars with nine tackles (five solo).
ANALYSIS
Hewitt unexpectedly stepped into a larger role for the Texans' defense Sunday after Azeez Al-Shaair was ejected in the second quarter for his illegal hit on quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Hewitt ended up playing 49 defensive snaps and his nine tackles matched a season best from Week 7 against the Packers. With Al-Shaair suspended for three games, Hewitt should have the chance to take on a larger role for the Texans' defense, starting in Week 15 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Dec. 15.

2020 Fantasy Outlook
After toiling away as a reserve for a few years, Hewitt finally got the opportunity to step into a starting role with injuries ravaging the Jets' linebacker corps in 2019. He made the most of that chance, racking up 75 tackles, three sacks and two interceptions in 12 games. It appeared Hewitt was destined for a return to a backup role in 2020, but he should pick up where he left off as a starter now that C.J. Mosley has opted out of the season.
