Top Christian Harris News

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Returns to full practice

    Harris (shin) practiced in full Thursday.

    Harris was inactive in Week 10 against Jacksonville but logged full practice sessions Thursday and Friday. He should return to action and contribute primarily on special teams Sunday against the Titans.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Won't play vs. Jacksonville

    Harris (shin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    A shin injury prevented Harris from practicing all week, and he will miss Sunday's AFC South tilt as a result. He's mostly worked on special teams this season, but his absence means Jake Hansen and Jamal Hill will serve as the backup outside linebackers for Houston behind E.J. Speed and Henry To'oTo'o.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Doesn't practice Wednesday

    Harris (shin) didn't participate in Houston's practice Wednesday.

    Harris is still dealing with the shin injury that forced him to exit early from the team's Week 9 loss to the Broncos. Jake Hansen and Jamal Hill would likely see increased playing time Sunday versus Jacksonville if Harris ends up being unable to suit up.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Won't return Sunday

    Harris has a shin injury and will not return to Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    The linebacker did not record a stat before leaving the contest. Harris has played more on special teams than defense this year.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Won't play against Baltimore

    Harris (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

    Harris worked in a rotational role at outside linebacker and contributed on special teams through the first four games of the regular season, but the 2022 third-rounder will be a healthy scratch for Sunday's game in Baltimore. Jake Hansen and E.J. Speed should see a slight increase in defensive snaps in Harris' absence.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Suits up Saturday

    Harris recorded two tackles in Saturday's 26-7 preseason win over the Lions.

    Harris has been sidelined sporadically this offseason by a calf injury that has lingered for the better part of the last calendar year. It's hard to trust his ability to stay on the field as a result, but he should rack up tackles as a key player in the middle of Houston's defense so long as he's healthy.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Dealing with calf injury

    Harris will not play in Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers due to a calf injury, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Harris will miss a second preseason game while working through a calf injury. He's been ramping up his activity in practices, though he's been held out of team drills and limited to positional work. Harris' practice participation next week will play a factor in whether he suits up against the Lions on Saturday, Aug. 23.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Practicing in full again

    Harris (calf) was a full participant at Monday's training camp practice, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Harris missed all but five of Houston's 20 combined regular-season and postseason games in 2024 due to a calf injury he suffered prior to the season, but it now seems like he may finally be fully recovered. When he's at full strength, he projects as a starter at linebacker next to Azeez Al-Shaair and Henry To'oTo'o.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Misses practice Wednesday

    Harris (calf) didn't participate in practice Wednesday, Johnathan M. Alexander and Sam Warren of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Harris is still dealing with the calf injury that forced him to miss 13 regular-season games last year. The 24-year-old will likely remain sidelined until he's fully healthy and will serve as one of the team's top rotational pass rushers once he returns.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Out until training camp

    Harris (calf) is expected back for training camp, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Harris suffered a calf injury last summer and missed the first 13 games of the 2024 season. He was able to return for Week 15 and also played in both of the Texans' postseason contests. The linebacker still isn't fully healthy however, although the team believes he will be ready for Week 1. Harris projects to be the Texans' top depth option behind starters Henry To'oTo'o and Azeez Al-Shaair.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Limited by injuries in 2024

    Harris finished the 2024 regular season with 20 total tackles (13 solo), including 1.0 sacks, across three games.

    Harris suffered a calf injury in July, and failed to appear in a game until Week 15 as a result. The linebacker did compile an impressive 20 takedowns in the three regular-season games he appeared in and he'll look to return to form in 2025.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Set to suit up Saturday

    Harris (ankle) is not among Houston's inactives for Saturday's wild-card contest versus the Chargers.

    Harris has been dealing with an ankle injury for the past three weeks and didn't play in the regular-season finale versus Tennessee. However, he was able to log a pair of full practices to end this week, setting him up to return to action Saturday. With Harris active and likely to start, Neville Hewitt may see less snaps on defense against Los Angeles.

  • Texans' Christian Harris: Questionable vs. Bolts

    Harris (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's wild-card round game against the Chargers, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

    Harris was able to end the week with consecutive full practices, so it appears that he is trending toward playing Saturday after being sidelined for the Texans' Week 18 win over the Titans. Unless he suffers a setback, Harris should start at linebacker alongside Azeez Al-Shaair and Henry To'oTo'o while Neville Hewitt, Jake Hansen and Devin White provide rotational depth.
