The Facts:
Daniels is expected to miss three to six weeks after the tight end suffered a non-displaced fibula fracture in Sunday night's loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Daniels won't require surgery, according to a source informed of the injury.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
It's a tough loss for the Texans, who rely heavily on Daniels in a play-action-heavy passing game. Daniels is a two-time Pro Bowl selection, who was second on the team with 24 receptions on the season. Matt Schaub doesn't have the same chemistry with tight ends Garrett Graham or Ryan Griffin -- although Graham has emerged as a scoring threat and now becomes a more viable fantasy weapon.
