2024 Fantasy Outlook
Signing Al-Shaair was the first move the Texans made when free agency opened up in March. In his age-27 season, the linebacker reunites with coach DeMeco Ryans, who served as Al-Shaair's defensive coordinator with the 49ers. He's a durable workhorse with a high motor and finished fifth in the NFL last season with 163 tackles for the Titans. Obviously, Ryans is familiar with all of his skills and plans to install Al-Shaair as the unit's signal-caller and middle linebacker, replacing the departed Blake Cashman. Read Past Outlooks
Limited Wednesday
Al-Shaair (shin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Following an impressive 10-tackle performance in Sunday night's win over the Bears, Al-Shaair appears to be dealing with a shin injury. His practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a clearer indication of his availability for Week 3, as the Texans take on the Vikings.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Al-Shaair spent the first four seasons of his professional career with the 49ers, but he joined the Titans this offseason. He's shown the ability to rack up tackles - he made 102 stops in 2021 - and will be relied upon for a big role in Tennessee after the departure of David Long. The biggest issue for Al-Shaair has been his ability to stay on the field, as he's played only 25 games combined across the last two seasons.
