Rodgers caught three of four targets for 22 yards in a 32-31 victory over Indianapolis in Week 18.

What it means:

Rodgers was given an opportunity due to a late-season injury to Nico Collins (foot) and likely played his way into the 2023 mix at wideout. He caught 12 of 17 targets for 154 yards and a touchdown over the final five games. The Texans will be hiring a new head coach and probably a new offensive coordinator, so personnel decisions are up in the air. If the organization parts with Brandin Cooks, there could be a starting spot available for a wide receiver. The downside is this another rebuilding year in Houston with new coaches and a new quarterback.

Rodgers caught both of his targets for 12 yards and ran once for four yards in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Jaguars in Week 17.

What it means:

Rodgers has been given a fresh start in Houston after the Packers released the 2021 third-round draft pick in November. He's made a couple of big catches for the Texans -- a 28-yard touchdown reception in the near-upset of Dallas and 37-yarder on the go-ahead drive in Week 16's win over Tennessee. Rodgers has nine catches (13 targets) for 132 yards (14.7 YPC) over the last four games.

Rodgers caught one of two targets for 37 yards in Saturday's 19-14 win over Tennessee in Week 16.

What it means:

Rodgers' catch was a big one, setting up Houston's go-ahead score with just under three minutes left. With Brandin Cooks returning from a calf injury, Rodgers played just 14 snaps and operated as the fourth wideout, but the 23-year-old has filled in as injuries his the team's top two wideouts. He's caught seven of 11 targets for 120 yards and a touchdown over the last three games.
rotoWire
Rodgers caught two of three targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Chiefs in Week 15.

What it means:

Rodgers, who caught four passes and his first career touchdown in Week 14, once again benefitted from Brandin Cooks (calf) and Nico Collins (foot) being unavailable. He was third among wideouts in playing time (32 snaps), behind Chris Moore (55) and Philip Dorsett (54), and he out-targeted Dorsett for a second straight week.
rotoWire
Rodgers recorded four receptions on five targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Cowboys.

What it means:

Rodgers appeared in his second game with the Texans and was thrust into a prominent role due to the absence of Brandin Cooks (groin) and Nico Collins (foot). He did the majority of his damage on a 28-yard touchdown catch late in the second quarter, the first score of his career. Rodgers will drop back to a peripheral role once either Cooks or Collins is able to return, though it's unclear when that may occur.
rotoWire
Rodgers is expected to serve as one of the Texans' top three receivers in Sunday's game against the Cowboys with Brandin Cooks (calf) and Nico Collins (foot) both ruled out, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

What it means:

After being claimed off waivers from the Packers on Nov. 16, Rodgers was inactive for the Texans' subsequent two games before finally getting the chance to make his debut in last week's loss to the Browns. Rodgers went without a target on 17 snaps, but his playing time and involvement in the passing game can only go up while Texans starting quarterback Davis Mills is without his top two wideouts this week. Phillip Dorsett and Chris Moore are ahead of Rodgers on the depth chart and are likely to fill in for Cooks and Collins on the perimeter, potentially leaving Rodgers to handle the slot role that has typically been Moore's domain when Houston has its receiving corps at full health.
