The Facts:
The Houston Texans have plenty of signal-callers, but nothing resembling a starter. New HC Bill O'Brien told reporters on Tuesday that the team's quarterback competition remains "wide open" after the first day of OTAs.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
While O'Brien praised free-agent addition Ryan Fitzpatrick's ability to pick up the new playbook, he emphasized that Case Keenum, T.J. Yates and rookie Tom Savage all have a chance to seize the top role. None of these men have finished an NFL season with a passer rating north of 83.3. According to NFL.com, we still shouldn't rule out the prospect of Houston dealing for Ryan Mallett, the Patriots backup eternally mentioned in trade talks and a signal-caller O'Brien knows well from their time together in New England. ... It's a situation fantasy football owners (and Andre Johnson) will want to keep an eye on.
