Texans' Will Anderson: Combines for sack in loss
Anderson logged five tackles (three solo), including 0.5 sacks, in the Texans' 34-30 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday.
Anderson and Danielle Hunter combined to sack Dak Prescott for a 9-yard loss on third down right before halftime. The sack set up a 65-yard field-goal attempt, which Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey missed. Anderson played 79 percent of the Texans' defensive snaps in the contest (62).

Texans' Reed Blankenship: Logs 11 tackles in loss
Blankenship made 11 tackles (five solo) in the Texans' 34-30 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday.
Blankenship played 73 defensive snaps in the contest, 94 percent of the Texans' total defensive plays. The 27-year-old also played four special-teams snaps in the losing effort. The strong safety's 11 tackles were second to outside linebacker Jake Hansen's 12.

Texans' Jake Hansen: Leads game in tackles
Hansen logged 12 tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, in the Texans' 34-30 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday.
Hansen played 74 defensive snaps in the contest, good for 95 percent of the Cowboys' total defensive plays. The linebacker also played nine snaps on special teams. Hansen sacked quarterback Dak Prescott once while leading both teams in total tackles but it was not enough to stop the Cowboys' offense from securing the Week 4 win.

Texans' Jaden Crumedy: Set for Week 5
Crumedy (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Crumedy was not listed on the Texans' injury report despite suffering a shoulder injury during the Week 4 loss to the Cowboys. The defensive tackle appears to have quickly recovered from the injury and is all set to continue preparing for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Texans' Braden Smith: Practice window opened by Houston
The Texans designated Smith (foot) to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
Smith opened the regular season on IR due to a torn plantar fascia, a diagnosis that came with a 4-to-6 week recovery timeline. Now that he's been designated to return, Smith will have 21 days to be activated from IR, otherwise he would be forced to sit for the entire 2026 season. The 2018 second-rounder was limited in Wednesday's practice.

Texans' Azeez Al-Shaair: Limited participant Wednesday
Al-Shaair (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Al-Shaair logged just one limited practice during Week 4 prep in Thursday's session. The middle linebacker's limited presence in the first prep session of Week 5 is a good sign. If the 29-year-old can build Wednesday's start into Thursday and Friday practice sessions, he may be able to dodge any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans.

Texans' Kayden McDonald: Returns to practice Wednesday
McDonald (ankle) returned to practice Wednesday.
McDonald is currently on injured reserve, but his return to practice, even in a limited capacity, suggests he could be back before the close of the 21-day window. The 21-year-old is coming off a quality final season with the Buckeyes, amassing 65 total tackles (31 solo), one pass defended and 3.0 sacks.

Texans' Mark Gronowski: Signs with Houston
Gronowski signed with the Texans on Wednesday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
The Texans had an open roster spot, so the move was made to sign Gronowski. However, with C.J. Stroud and Davis Mills in the equation, Gronowski likely won't see the field.

Texans' Tank Dell: Limited in return to practice
Dell (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Dell made his first practice appearance of the regular season, though he remains on injured reserve after his 21-day evaluation window was officially opened Wednesday. The Texans have been taking it easy with Dell as he works his way back from a severe multi-ligament left knee injury, which he sustained Dec. 21, 2024. Houston has plenty of opportunity for snaps and targets behind No. 1 receiver Nico Collins, but in order to stake his claim to a meaningful role once he's activated from IR at some point over the next three weeks, Dell will need to show in practices that he hasn't lost too much of his pre-injury speed and explosiveness.

Texans' Tank Dell: Designated to return from IR
The Texans designated Dell (knee) to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
The move opens Dell's 21-day practice window, so he should be back on the field sometime in the next three weeks. Houston's offense is devoid of speed and playmaking ability outside of Nico Collins, but it's also unclear if Dell is going to be the same player he was before suffering his gruesome knee injury late in the 2024 season. He's a total unknown at this point and will compete for snaps and targets with the likes of Kayshon Boutte, Jaylin Noel and Xavier Hutchinson once he returns to action.

Texans' Jaylin Smith: Placed on IR
Smith (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve by the Texans on Tuesday.
Smith will be forced to miss at least four weeks of action after suffering a Grade 2 hamstring strain, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. The cornerback has played only seven snaps on defense this season, so his absence will carry more of an impact on Houston's special-teams unit.
