Jakob Johnson: Let go by Houston
The Texans waived Johnson on Monday.
Johnson has been let go by the Texans despite being the lone fullback on the roster. He should garner interest from teams in need of blocking out of the backfield, though he could opt to remain in Houston as a member of the team's practice squad if he clears waivers.

Texans' Jakob Johnson: Ready for Week 11
Johnson (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Johnson is active and ready to suit up for his first game since Week 3 against the Jaguars, where he suffered a hamstring injury that placed him on injured reserve. The starting fullback's presence should improve the Texans' special teams unit as well as provide an extra blocker out of the backfield for a rushing attack comprising Nick Chubb and Woody Marks. The addition should be especially potent against the divisional rival Titans, who rank 24th in rush yards allowed with 1,272 on the season.

Texans' Jakob Johnson: Activated from IR
The Texans activated Johnson (hamstring) from injured reserve Saturday.
Johnson is still listed as questionable for Sunday's AFC South tilt against the Titans, but his activation from injured reserve primes him to return from a six-game absence due to a hamstring injury. The seventh-year fullback gives the Texans an extra blocker out of the backfield for the running back duo of Nick Chubb and Woody Marks, as well as a contributor for special teams.

Texans' Jakob Johnson: Questionable for Sunday
Johnson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans,
Johnson was a full participant in practice all week and appears ready to play if the team decides to activate him off injured reserve for Sunday's game. The fullback has been on IR since Week 3 due to a hamstring injury, and his return could greatly contribute to the team's rushing attack.

Texans' Jakob Johnson: Not ready to return
Johnson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Johnson was a full participant in practice all week, but he's not quite ready to return from injured reserve. Given his ability to ramp up his practice participation, the seventh-year pro should be activated from IR ahead of the Texans' Week 11 clash against the Titans on Sunday, Nov. 16.

Texans' Jakob Johnson: Won't return for Week 9
Johnson (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Texans' Jakob Johnson: Questionable ahead of Week 9
Johnson (hamstring) was a full participant at Friday's practice and is listed as questionable leading up to Week 9 against Denver.
Johnson, who was designated to return from the injured list earlier in the week, logged full practices Thursday and Friday. The fullback was considered as one option to fill in for tight end Dalton Schultz (knee, shoulder), but that doesn't appear to be needed as Schultz logged a full practice Friday and is likely to play Sunday. Johnson has appeared in three games but does not have a carry over 40 snaps on offense. He's also a component on special teams, where he has one tackle and one blocked punt over 36 snaps.

Jakob Johnson: Back with HOU on practice squad
The Texans signed Johnson to their practice squad Thursday.
Though he wasn't able to make Houston's initial 53-man roster, Johnson will remain in the organization as a member of the practice squad. Any opportunities he gets to be a part of the gameday roster in 2025 will likely be for his work as a blocker -- Johnson has never gotten a carry over 67 career regular-season NFL games and has tallied just 19 receptions over that span.
