Texans' Tank Dell: Expected to practice Week 5
Head coach DeMeco Ryans said Monday that he expects the Texans to open Dell's (knee) 21-day practice window this week, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Still on the mend from the severe multi-ligament knee injury that he sustained Dec. 21, 2024, Dell was able to take part in some full-contact practices during training camp but sat out the Texans' entire preseason slate before he was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return prior to Week 1. The 26-year-old wideout appears to have responded well to the extra recovery time to begin the regular season, and he could be ready to mix into drills when Houston kicks off Week 5 prep Wednesday. Dell likely won't be activated ahead of Sunday's contest in Tennessee, but the Texans' willingness to open his practice window suggests that he's expected to be ready for game action by midseason.

Texans' Jaden Crumedy: Dealing with shoulder issue
Crumedy suffered a shoulder injury during Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.
Crumedy exited the game with a shoulder injury in the second half, finishing his day having recorded one tackles, including 0.5 sacks. The defensive tackle's first chance to prove his health ahead of Week 5 will come Wednesday at the team's first practice session of the week.

Texans' Jaylin Noel: Totals 89 yards in loss to Dallas
Noel caught all three targets for 85 yards in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys. He added four rushing yards on one attempt.
Despite Nico Collins (hamstring) returning to the lineup after missing two games, Noel remained a big part of the offense, as Xavier Hutchinson was the big loser in terms of snaps and routes. Noel ran just one fewer route than Kayshon Boutte and six fewer than Collins. Through four games, Noel has nine catches for 186 yards on 12 targets. He has a chance to become the Texans' WR2 behind Collins at some point this season, especially if Boutte doesn't start producing.

Texans' Jaylin Smith: Didn't return against Dallas
Smith (hamstring) was unable to return to Sunday's game against Dallas.
Smith was injured on special teams in the first half. He entered Sunday having logged just seven defensive snaps across the first three weeks of the season.

Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Productive showing in Week 4
Fairbairn converted on 3-for-3 field-goal attempts and 3-for-3 point-after tries in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.
Despite the loss, the Texans offense had it going in Week 4, resulting in Fairbairn finishing with his best performance of the 2026 campaign. His three field goals included a 54-yarder, his second longest kick of the season. With the winless Titans on tap for Week 5, Fairbairn could be in line for another productive showing.

Texans' David Montgomery: Bottled up in Week 4 loss
Montgomery carried the ball 10 times for 24 yards and added 19 receiving yards on a hook-and-ladder play in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.
The veteran RB's longest gain on the ground went for only six yards, and Woody Marks scampered for the Texans' only rushing TD of the afternoon on a six-yard run just before the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter -- a score set up by Montgomery's 19-yard dash following a lateral from Dalton Schultz just one play before. Montgomery hasn't found the end zone himself or reached 50 scrimmage yards since Week 1, a streak he'll look to end in a Week 5 road trip to Tennessee.

Texans' C.J. Stroud: Comes up short in wild loss to Dallas
Stroud completed 21 of 31 passes for 347 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys. He added 12 yards on two carries.
With top receiver Nico Collins back in the fold after a hamstring strain, Stroud posted his best numbers of the season -- he threw for 353 yards in Week 2, but it came on 55 attempts and he didn't produce a TD. Both of Stroud's scores Sunday went to Collins, and through four games he has a 5:0 TD:INT, with his only two turnovers being a pair of Week 1 fumbles. The fourth-year QB will try to lead Houston to its first win of the year in a Week 5 road trip to Tennessee.

Texans' Nico Collins: Scores twice in return to lineup
Collins caught seven of eight targets for 118 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.
Making his return from a two-game absence due to a hamstring strain, Collins led the Texans in catches, targets and scrimmage yards while hauling in C.J. Stroud's only two TD passes of the day. While Houston is a disastrous 0-4 to start the season, the offense has scored 61 points in the two games Collins has been active for, and just 23 in the two games he missed. The star wideout will look to come up big again in Week 5 on the road in Tennessee.

Texans' Kenneth Murray: Evaluated for concussion in loss
Murray was evaluated for a concussion during Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.
Murray recorded four tackles (one solo) before exiting during the second half, and it's unclear if he returned before the end of the game. The 27-year-old struggled last season with the Cowboys, recording 81 tackles (31 solo) over 17 regular-season games, and he was making his 2026 season debut for Houston in Week 4. The Texans will be back in action versus the Titans this coming Sunday, Oct. 11.

Texans' Jaylin Smith: Injures hamstring vs. Dallas in Week 4
Smith (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Smith was hurt in the first half while blocking on punt coverage. He headed to the medical tent and was subsequently deemed questionable to return. Smith has primarily worked on special teams this season, so that unit would be most affected should Smith be done for the day.

Texans' Ed Ingram: Cleared to play Sunday
Ingram (groin) is active against the Cowboys on Sunday.
Ingram has been cleared by medical staff to play Sunday after working through a groin issue during Week 4 prep. He'll provide the Texans with depth on the offensive line against Dallas.

Texans' Jake Hansen: Cleared to play against Dallas
Hansen (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Hansen worked through a knee issue during Week 4 prep, but he's been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups. He's taken on a larger role defensively over the past couple of weeks in the absence of Jake Hummel (groin, IR).

Texans' Jadeveon Clowney: Active for Week 4
Clowney (knee) is active against the Cowboys on Sunday.
Clowney has been cleared to return from a two-game absence due to a bone bruise in his knee. His return gives the Texans additional depth on the defensive line behind starters Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson.

Texans' Marlin Klein: Inactive for Week 4
Klein (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
The rookie second-rounder will be a healthy scratch for the first time this season, and his next chance to play is Week 5 against the Titans on Sunday, Oct. 11. Cade Stover and Brevin Jordan will serve as the Texans' depth options at tight end behind Dalton Schultz and Foster Moreau.
