2009 Fantasy Year In Review: Steve Slaton had continued problems fumbling the football and was pulled out of the lineup a few times because of it. By the start of December, we learned that Slaton had a pinched nerve in his neck that was causing him to lose feeling down to the tips of his fingers.

Slaton went on to miss the last month of the season and Coach Gary Kubiak later noted that he believed Slaton’s fumbling issues where because of the pinched nerve. For the season Slaton was a bust but looking back it is hard to blame a player when he was playing through that kind of problem.

2010 NFL Fantasy Football Player Rankings: This offseason Slaton had a surgery to help with the nerve damage, and he won’t partake in contact drills until camp. For this season Slaton will be the Texans third down back as he won’t be conditioned to take on a full load with his neck issue.

Look for Arian Foster as the top fantasy option on this team and then Ben Tate to be his backup. Slaton will be in the mix, but he won’t be a fantasy factor until late in the season at best. Hopefully, Slaton can bounce back from this health issue and get his career back on track in 2011.
