Greg or Tom

Why is he listed as a RB on FAAB when he's clearly a TE and listed that way on the Texans site?

Hey Jeff, he's listed as a fullback on their depth chart. Link is below. They don't use a traditional fullback but Casey does line up there at times since he's an H-Back.

I am pretty sure when I drafted he was listed as a tight end(now this was a july 1st 60 league.)I check the live scoring and he is my #1 scoring tight end with 22 pts.I check the roster grid for the league and he is listed as a rb but on the live scoring he is a tight end.

Live scoring is not official and Casey should be listed as a RB in all leagues on the stats page. If he's not, please email me ([email protected]) with your name and the league and I'll have our tech guys look into this. Thanks.

Some clarification on Casey. The Texans initially listed him as a TE and that's why he is showing a TE position for leagues that drafted earlier (such as the June $60 or slow draft leagues). He is only a TE in those leagues. Houston subsequently changed his position to RB which is what he shows now. So his position now is RB. He does not have dual eligibility. Hope this clarifies things a bit with last Sunday's superstar.

Can you list him at RB/TE by chance?

He's still "officially" listed as a TE:

With that said, a ruling has been made. He's a RB for the rest of the season. Case closed.

I sure hope so because he was listed as a RB when we just WAY overspent on him bec we have ALL of our RBs on bye in week 5. So I spent almost 200 FAB (stupid but desperate) and now that we won him it says only eligible at TE. Hope it gets fixed
