Top Texans News

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Logs limited practice

    Collins (hip/foot) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.

    Collins didn't practice Wednesday, but his return to the field Thursday in a limited capacity bodes well for his chances of being available Sunday against the Vikings. The wideout will presumably need to practice fully Friday, however, in order to avoid taking an injury designation into Sunday.

  • Texans' Dalton Schultz: Takes every rep Thursday

    Schultz (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

    Schultz was a limited participant Wednesday in the Texans' first Week 3 practice session, but his ability to take every rep a day later clears the way for the tight end to suit up Sunday in Minnesota. Through the first two weeks of the season, Schultz has produced a 5-37-0 receiving line on six targets while playing at least 70 percent of the offensive snaps in both contests. With top backup Brevin Jordan (knee) suffering a season-ending ACL tear in Week 2, Schultz could see a slight uptick in his snap count moving forward.

  • Texans' Brevin Jordan: Torn ACL confirmed

    Jordan (knee), whom the Texans placed on injured reserve Wednesday, is out for the season due to a torn ACL, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Jordan played a notable role behind top tight end Dalton Schultz during Houston's first two games of the regular season, serving as a key lead blocker while also catching two of three targets for seven yards. He sustained the knee injury during the Texans' win over the Bears in Week 2 and will now turn his attention toward making a recovery for the 2025 campaign. Beginning with Sunday's road game versus Minnesota, Cade Stover will be in line to handle a larger role behind Schultz. Houston also signed tight end Irv Smith to the practice squad Tuesday.

  • Texans' Brevin Jordan: Reportedly has torn ACL

    Jordan, who the Texans placed on injured reserve Wednesday due to a knee injury, is reportedly recovering from a torn ACL, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Jordan caught his only target during Houston's win over the Bears on Sunday Night Football, but it appears he's since suffered a season-ending injury. The severity of Jordan's injury remains to be fully confirmed by the Texans, but it looks like Cade Stover is in line to handle an increased role behind top tight end Dalton Schultz for the rest of the year, and beginning Week 3 on the road against Minnesota.

  • Texans' Cam Akers: Could be headed for Week 3 start

    Akers took first-team snaps at practices Wednesday and Thursday while Joe Mixon (ankle) and Dameon Pierce (hamstring) sat out both sessions, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    A healthy inactive Week 1 despite completing his recovery from the torn left Achilles' tendon he suffered last November without any setbacks, Akers could suddenly find himself in a leading role out of the backfield for a potent Houston offense two weeks later. As Wilson notes, the ankle injury that Mixon suffered in the second half of last Sunday's win over the Bears isn't regarded as a long-term concern, but the back-to-back absences at practice make it increasingly likely that he'll be sidelined for this weekend's game versus the Vikings. Wilson adds that Pierce is also close to a return after sitting out the Week 2 contest, but he appears to be trending toward missing another game this weekend. While serving as the No. 2 back behind Mixon in Week 2, Akers was productive with seven carries for 32 yards and one catch for three yards, though he lost a red-zone fumble in the win. If Mixon and Pierce are both sidelined Sunday in Minnesota, Akers should operate as Houston's lead ballcarrier, but he could cede some passing-down work to Dare Ogunbowale.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Remains sidelined Thursday

    Pierce (hamstring) didn't participate in practice Thursday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    With both Pierce and Joe Mixon (ankle) poised to log back-to-back DNPs, what, if anything, they are able to do Friday will be telling with regard to their chances of facing the Vikings on Sunday. In the event that both are unavailable this weekend, Cam Akers would be in line to lead the Texans backfield versus Minnesota, according to Wilson.

  • Texans' Joe Mixon: Not practicing Thursday

    Mixon (ankle) didn't participate in practice Thursday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    The same goes for top backup Dameon Pierce (hamstring), with both players also having been DNPs on Wednesday. As a result, the duo's status for Sunday's game against the Vikings is cloudy, and in the event that both Mixon and Pierce are unavailable this weekend, Cam Akers would be in line to step into an expanded role, according to Wilson.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Back at practice

    Collins (hip/foot) returned to practice Thursday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Collins was held out of Wednesday's session, but his return to the field a day later bodes well for his availability for Sunday's game against the Vikings. The Texans' upcoming injury report will provide added context on that front by revealing the wideout's participation level Thursday.

  • Texans' Azeez Al-Shaair: Limited Wednesday

    Al-Shaair (shin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Following an impressive 10-tackle performance in Sunday night's win over the Bears, Al-Shaair appears to be dealing with a shin injury. His practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a clearer indication of his availability for Week 3, as the Texans take on the Vikings.

  • Texans' Dalton Schultz: Limited in practice Wednesday

    Schultz (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.

    Schultz missed consecutive practices last week before logging a full session Friday to avoid taking an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bears. In Houston's 19-13 win over Chicago, Schultz caught two of his three targets for 21 yards while logging a 71 percent snap share. With no reported setbacks in that contest, Schultz's listed limitations Wednesday may have simply been a case of load management ahead of this Sunday's game against the Vikings.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: DNP due to hip and foot injuries

    Collins was held out of Wednesday's practice with hip and foot injuries, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Collins didn't provide any evidence of being limited by injury during Sunday's 19-13 win over Chicago, as he logged 84 percent of the offensive snaps while leading the Texans in routes (36), targets (10) and receiving yards (135). He leads the league with 252 receiving yards through two weeks -- nobody else has more than 200 -- and he will have two more chances to practice ahead of Sunday's game at Minnesota.
