Suffered serious knee injury in Week 16 loss to KC DeMeco Ryans says it's too early to put a timeline on whether Tank Dell will play in 2025. He didn't want to speculate on whether they'd need to find receiver because of that. But added they'd look to improve their team in all areas. (Jonathan Alexander on Twitter) FF Today's Take: At the very least, Dell should not be expected to play for the first half of next season. Perhaps he can play a bit role late in the season - not unlike what Tyler Higbee did for the Rams this season - but even that seems unlikely given how serious Dell's injury was. Houston will likely try hard to re-sign Stefon Diggs (ACL) and could even invest a Day 2 or early Day 3 draft pick into the position after John Metchie, Robert Woods and Xavier Hutchinson failed to distinguish themselves.
Woods was held off the stat sheet as Xavier Hutchinson drew six looks and John Metchie saw two. Although Woods' hip injury was undoubtedly a factor, it's not a great sign for the 32-year-old as he heads to the open market. Limited to 60 catches in two years in Houston, Woods could struggle to find guaranteed money in free agency. Someone would have to really like his leadership ability.
Both players came into the weekend listed as questionable, with Mixon downgraded throughout the week with an ankle injury and Woods missing all three practices with a hip injury. Also active for the Texans is linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair. Inactive for the Texans are RB J.J. Taylor, LB Devin White ,DE Jerry Hughes, G/C Kendrick Green, G Nick Broeker, and DT Kurt Hinish.
Texans WR Robert Woods (hip) is active for today's game vs. the Chiefs. He didn't practice all week, so it's unclear what kind of role Woods will be ready for today. He's not a recommended play in any fantasy format.
Texans WR Robert Woods (hip) is listed as questionable for Saturday's Divisional Round game vs. the Chiefs. He didn't practice all week. Woods played 51% of the offensive snaps for an injury-riddled Texans WR corps in the Wild Card win over the Chargers. His absence would force WR Xavier Hutchinson and potentially WR Jared Wayne into more snaps against Kansas City. WR Nico Collins, TE Dalton Schultz, and WR John Metchie project as the top three targets.
