O.J. Howard Status
rotoWire
Howard (hip) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts.
What it means:
Howard popped up on the injury report with the hip issue Thursday and was able to put in a full practice Friday, but he won't suit up for the final game of the season Sunday. The 28-year-old closes out his first year in Houston with 10 catches for 145 yards and two touchdowns in 13 games.
rotoWire
Howard (hip) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts.
What it means:
Howard returned to a full practice Friday after a limited session Thursday, so he appears to be trending toward playing. The depth tight end is unlikely to play significant role in Houston's low-octane passing game.
rotoWire
Howard was a limited participant during practice Thursday due to a hip injury.
What it means:
Howard was a healthy scratch in back-to-back games before suiting up for last Sunday's loss to Jacksonville, recording one catch for 26 yards on two targets across 17 offensive snaps. He then did not appear on Wednesday's injury report, so it's unclear when he sustained this new hip issue. Howard will now look to bump his practice activity back up Friday before the Texans release their final injury report for Sunday's regular-season finale versus Indianapolis.
rotoWire
Howard (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs.
What it means:
For the second time in three weeks, Howard will be a healthy scratch for Houston. Rookie fifth-rounder Teagan Quitoriano led the Texans in snaps at tight end in Week 14 at Dallas, so the team could continue to try to see what they have in him.
rotoWire
Howard (coach's decision) is a healthy inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
What it means:
After logging a season-low 16 percent of the Texans' offensive snaps in last week's loss to the Dolphins, Howard will now find himself in street clothes for the first time in 2022. Brevin Jordan, who had been a healthy scratch the past three weeks, will replace Howard as the Texans' likely No. 3 tight end behind Jordan Akins and Teagan Quitoriano.
rotoWire
Howard caught one of three targets for nine yards and played 14 snaps in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Commanders in Week 11.
What it means:
Howard had a couple of red-zone looks, but he lost playing time to rookie Teagan Quitoriano, who led Houston's tight ends with 37 snaps. Howard was also behind Jordan Akins (26 snaps).
