After returning from a pinky injury, Jaylin Noel is now out with a hamstring injury, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. The injury is expected to keep him sidelined for a few weeks.
2026 Fantasy Football Impact: Even Farther Off The Radar
A third-round pick out of Iowa State, Noel struggled to produce as a rookie, averaging just 4.0 fantasy points per game and a 6.0% target share.
When he was on the field, he showed glimpses of a future fantasy-producing profile. He commanded a target on 15.8% of the routes he ran while averaging 1.45 yards per route.
But heading into his second season, when he’s hoping to make a big leap, not being able to get on the practice or preseason field and build rapport won’t help his case.
Noel was already off most fantasy radars, and this report won't change that.
