2024 RTSports Outlook
Skowronek saw a dip in production last season, catching just eight passes after having 39 the previous season. He was targeted just 12 times on the season. He might have a hard time finding the field again this season unless injury hits once again. He should be fourth or fifth on the depth chart. Skowronek has good size for the receiver spot. He is a tough cover because of his size and does well after the catch because he can be hard to bring down. He does lack some speed, though, and can struggle to separate.
FANTASY OUTLOOK: Skowronek is going to be really hit or miss in a reserve role. He might have a big game or two along the way but who knows when they will come? Expect his numbers to be slimier to last year. He can get around 10 receptions for 100 yards.

The Houston Texans acquired wide receiver Ben Skowronek from the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday, according to sources. The Rams were set to waiver Skowronek, but the Texans swooped in before he hit waivers to get something done to add receiving depth behind Stefon Diggs, Nico Collins, Tank Dell, Robert Woods, Noah Brown, John Metchie III and others. The 26-year-old Skowronek was the Rams' seventh-round pick in 2021 and has mostly been limited to a role on special teams in his three years in the NFL. That will likely continue to be the case with his move to Houston, and he won't be on the fantasy radar at all. In his three years in the NFL in LA, Skowronek only had 58 receptions for 575 yards and one touchdown on 93 targets in 45 games (12 starts).

The Los Angeles Rams released wide receiver Ben Skowronek on Thursday, according to a source. The former seventh-round pick in 2021 out of Notre Dame had emerged into a team captain last year but also had a career-low eight receptions on 12 targets for 66 yards and his first career touchdown in 17 regular-season games (zero starts). The 26-year-old has mostly contributed on special teams in his three-year NFL career and will likely continue to do so wherever he winds up next. In his three years in LA, Skowronek caught 58 of his 93 targets for 575 receiving yards and just one touchdown in 45 games played (12 starts). He'll be off the fantasy radar wherever he lands next.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Ben Skowronek (hip) got in a full practice on Wednesday ahead of his team's Week 13 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Skowronek injured his hip during Week 11 but he was able to play through the injury in a Week 12 win over the Arizona Cardinals. His ability to practice fully on Wednesday indicates that he is trending in the right direction heading into Week 13. Assuming he doesn't get downgraded on Thursday or Friday, it appears that Skowronek will be on the field in Week 13.
