SUMMARY
Quarterback Rank: #83   
Overall: #475


Orlovsky was the top backup in Houston this past season, but didn't get in a game. He hasn't played a snap in two seasons with the Texans. He last attempted a pass in the NFL in 2008, but started several games that year. Orlovsky brings some positives to the table. He is athletic, moves around the pocket well and has a plus arm. He does struggle with accuracy and decision making, though, and needs a lot more work to be a consistent starter in the NFL. He does have some starting experience, which gives him some value as a backup. He has a good chance to be the No. 2 in Indianapolis this season.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Orlovsky is intriguing if he gets some starts, but the chances of him starting are pretty slim. He likes to take chances downfield and go for the big play, giving him some big-game potential. He'll be worth a look if he is forced into a starting role because of injury.

The last time the team won with so few years, former QB Jim Harbaugh had 75 yards in a win over the Miami Dolphins Dec. 18, 1994.

Indianapolis Colts QB Dan Orlovsky will start over QB Curtis Painter in Week 13 versus the New England Patriots, according to head coach Jim Caldwell. Orlovsky has gone 14-for-21 with 122 yards this season.
Fantasy Impact: This was probably long overdue as Painter has been awful of late. Don't expect a big improvement from Orlovsky, though, but he can't be worse than Painter, right?

Indianapolis Colts QB Curtis Painter went 13-for-19 for 94 yards and two interceptions in Week 10 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. QB Dan Orlovsky replaced Painter during the game and went 7-for-10 for 67 yards.
