Impact Hadebe's status will be monitored in the coming days, but it wouldn't be surprising if the defender ends up missing Saturday's contest.

Impact Hadebe could return to the pitch for his first appearance since March 15 if he's considered as a substitute in either Matt Miazga's or Miles Robinson's place. While he has shown potential as a defensive contributor, Hadebe may be a risky fantasy pick unless he regains consistent playing time soon.

However, Hadebe tends to focus more on defensive stats, and he will not deliver too many attacking stats on a game-to-game basis. Hadebe has started in his 10 league appearances this season, and he should remain in the XI when Houston takes on Dallas on Saturday.
