| Oct 25 |
Blankenship was deemed to have a concussion by one of the NFL's independent neurologists. The safety has now entered the league's five-step concussion protocol and will not participate in full-contact practices or games until he is cleared. M.J. Stewart will likely finish the game at strong safety alongside Calen Bullock. |
Tank DellWR · YesterdayKnee - ACL + MCL · Surgery · Left · Back Oct 25 · Yesterday | Injured Reserve | Knee - ACL + MCL · Surgery · Left | Oct 25 | Dell will be making his first appearance since Dec. 21, 2024, when he sustained a severe left knee injury that included a dislocated kneecap and damage to multiple ligaments. Through his first two seasons in the NFL, Dell had emerged as a key complementary option behind No. 1 wideout Nico Collins, but the Texans are likely tempering expectations for the 26-year-old coming off a nearly two-year layoff. Dell, who was cleared to resume practicing Oct. 7 and was a full participant throughout Week 6 prep, is expected to be in line for a light snap count in his 2026 debut. |
Azeez Al-ShaairLB · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Al-Shaair was being evaluated by medical staff for a possible concussion in the second quarter. The veteran linebacker has passed all the benchmarks and will be back on the field for the second half of Sunday's contest in London. |
Braden SmithOT · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | — |
C.J. StroudQB · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | With Marvin Harrison making his Texans debut, Stroud spread the ball around to 10 different pass catchers as he set a new season high in TD passes and topped 300 yards for the third time in six games. The QB did throw his first INT of the season at a potentially crucial time, getting picked off by Travis Hunter in the end zone in the fourth quarter, but Stroud made up for it by putting together a game-winning field goal drive as time expired on his next possession. He'll take a 9:1 TD:INT into a Week 7 clash with the Giants. |
Dalton SchultzTE · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Schultz actually led the team with his six targets, but C.J. Stroud spread the ball around to 10 different pass catchers on a day he attempted 34 passes. Schultz has been held to 35 yards or fewer in five of six games this season and has yet to visit the end zone. He's a low-floor, low-ceiling fantasy bet ahead of next Sunday's date with the Giants. |
Febechi NwaiwuG · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | — |
Foster MoreauTE · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Moreau made the most of his two opportunities, securing a pair of red-zone scores from one and six yards. Three of Moreau's 11 grabs this season have resulted in red-zone touchdowns. He can mostly be ignored in fantasy football while Dalton Schultz is healthy. |
Henry To'oTo'oLB · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | The 25-year-old linebacker had been listed as questionable heading into Sunday's contest, but after being activated from injured reserve Saturday, the writing was on the wall for him to suit up in London. To'oTo'o will be suiting up for the first time since the Texans' Week 1 loss to the Bills, when he exited in the fourth quarter after injuring his shoulder. |
Ja'Marcus IngramCB · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Listed as questionable heading into Sunday, Ingram had been expected to suit up against Jacksonville after he closed Week 6 prep with a pair of full practices before being officially reinstated from injured reserve Saturday. The 29-year-old will likely handle a depth role in the Houston secondary and will be featured on the special-teams units. |
Jake HansenLB · 4d ago4d ago | Active | — | — | — |
Jawhar JordanRB · 21h ago21h ago | Active | — | — | Jordan played 14 of the Texans' 63 offensive snaps in their 34-31 win over the Jaguars in London in Week 6, taking six carries for 43 yards and a touchdown and catching his only target for another seven yards. With regular starter David Montgomery (groin) out, Jordan proved an effective change of pace behind 2025 fourth-rounder Woody Marks. If Montgomery is out again in Week 7 versus the Giants, Jordan could be in line for another significant role come Sunday. |
Jaylin NoelWR · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Noel has made much of his mark on special teams through five games this season, including two kick returns for 65 yards and one punt return for two yards in Week 6. However, he reached the end zone for a second consecutive game on a 13-yard connection with QB C.J. Stroud, and Noel's receiving-yardage total easily bested his previous career high of 85 yards, which he managed in Week 4 against the Cowboys. Nico Collins remains the top dog in the Texans' receiving corps, and Marvin Harrison just showed up from Arizona via trade, but Noel appears to have built a nice rapport with Stroud as his second season has gone on. |
Ka'imi FairbairnPK · 21h ago21h ago | Active | — | — | Fairbairn hit a 49-yard field goal dead center between the uprights as time expired to help the Texans win their second game of the 2026 season, and he also was perfect otherwise, improving on what already was a good start to the season. He looks as accurate as ever, and Houston's offense has been quite effective of late, averaging 30.0 points per game over its last three contests. He projects as a very good fantasy option for Week 7, as he'll be kicking indoors in a matchup versus the Giants. |
Kayshon BoutteWR · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | Though the newly acquired Marvin Harrison was limited to just 12 snaps in his Texans debut, his presence may have been enough for Boutte to see a notable role reduction in Week 6. Boutte took the field for 26 of the Texans' 63 snaps, with his 41.3 percent share representing a season-low rate and placing him fourth among Houston receivers. Harrison is likely to see his snaps pick up once he gains a full grasp of his new playbook, and Boutte could end up being a casualty from a playing-time standpoint. |
Marlin KleinTE · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | — |
Marvin Harrison Jr.WR · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | Making his Texans debut, Harrison wasn't especially productive on his own, but quarterback C.J. Stroud seemed to benefit from his presence and spread the ball around to 10 different pass catchers. The three grabs still tied Harrison's season high, giving him something to build on as he looks to put his disappointing Cardinals tenure behind him. The two former Ohio State teammates will look to re-buiild their chemistry further in Week 7 against the Giants. |
Nate ThomasOT · YesterdayYesterday | Active | — | — | — |
Nico CollinsWR · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | C.J. Stroud spread the ball around to 10 different pass catchers, and Jaylin Noel wound up being the most productive of the bunch with a 4-107-1 line. Collins still hit for a 42-yard gain on his first catch of the day, helping to set up a Foster Moreau TD in the first quarter. Collins has topped 70 receiving yards in three of his four games this season, compiling a 22-323-3 line on 30 targets. He'll take on an injury-thinned Giants secondary at home in Week 7. |

Trent BrownOT · 5d ago5d ago | Active | — | — | — |
Woody MarksRB · 2d ago2d ago | Active | — | — | With David Montgomery (groin) inactive, Marks led the Texans backfield in touches and scrimmage yards, but practice-squad elevation Jawhar Jordan arguably made a bigger splash with 43 rushing yards and a touchdown on just six carries. Jordan showed some upside late last season when pressed into duty as well, so even if Montgomery's absence continues, Marks could see his workload shrink. Marks will take on the Giants in Week 7. |
Xavier HutchinsonWR · 19h ago19h ago | Active | — | — | Though he finished with season-low marks in catches, receiving yards and targets, Hutchinson was on the field for 34 offensive snaps, surpassing his playing time from each of the previous three contests. He also saw some usage as a kickoff returner for the first time since Week 18 of the 2024 season. Working as a return man could prove to be Hutchinson's primary role moving forward, after Houston acquired Marvin Harrison from Arizona and anticipates Tank Dell (knee) returning from injured reserve for a Week 7 game against the Giants. |
