Anderson drives Houston’s defensive ceiling; with the offense finding rhythm, his disruptive presence helps balance the team and fuels a potential playoff push.

Anderson anchors Houston with a 32.0% win rate, signaling elite-level influence and a clear blueprint for fantasy ceiling as the Texans’ defense leans into disruptive pressure generation.

Anderson Jr. forms the edge of a powerful Texans front with Danielle Hunter, creating pressure that fuels the secondary and limits opposing offenses. His work elevates the overall defensive ceiling and indirectly supports Pitre’s turnover opportunities.

Led Week 5 with 92.1 overall grade, 40% pass-rush win rate, and five pressures as Houston’s front anchors the defense.

Anderson tops the league in pass-rush win rate (32.0%), establishing himself as a premier edge threat in his third season and a fantasy asset to watch in Houston’s defense.
