Kenyon Green - Set to be placed on IR Green (shoulder) is expected to be placed on injured reserve in the near future, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Green suffered a separated shoulder in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets, which will sideline him for the foreseeable future. The offensive guard does have a chance at making a return late in the season though depending on how well he progresses in rehab according to Rapoport. In the meantime, Kendrick Green will likely take over at left guard for Houston.

Takeaways from Jets Week 9 'TNF' win vs. Texans
2 DAYS AGO • YOUTUBE
Cade Stover - Two targets in loss Stover did not catch either of his two targets in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets in Week 9.
Impact Houston was without its top two wideouts for the game, which presented an opportunity for a lesser-known receiver, such as Stover, to produce. However, that didn't materialize, as quarterback C.J. Stroud (eight sacks, 11 hits) was on the run most of the night, which impacted the passing attack. Stover has seven catches on 11 targets for 85 yards through nine games.

Ka'imi Fairbairn - Stumbles in loss Fairbairn made two of four field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets in Week 9.
Impact Fairbairn misfired from 56 yards near the end of the first half and later hit the upright on a 27-yard attempt. It's rare he has two misses in a game, particularly when one is a chip shot inside the 30. His makes were from 54 and 29 yards. While the misses altered the trajectory of the game, this loss was more on the offense than the kicker.

Steven Sims - Main returner in loss Sims returned four kickoffs for 106 yards and one punt for zero yards in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets in Week 9.
Impact Sims was the main returner for the night, as Houston was without Dameon Pierce (groin) and didn't want to expose Robert Woods in a game where the team's top two wideouts were not available. Sims played just six snaps on offense and has not yet been targeted in 2024.

John Metchie III - Two targets in loss Metchie failed to catch either of his two targets in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets in Week 9.
Impact With the team's top wideouts sidelined, Metchie was in line to take on a greater role, but it didn't work out that way. Houston quarterback C.J. Stroud spent much of the night running away from or getting hit by Jets defenders, which made a mess of the passing attack. Metchie, who played a season-high 50 snaps, and fellow wideout Xavier Hutchinson (59 snaps, three targets, no catches) were non-factors in the loss.

Xavier Hutchinson - Three targets in loss Hutchinson did not catch any of his three targets in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets in Week 9.
Impact Houston's passing attack was expected to be challenged with both Nico Collins (hamstring) and Stefon Diggs (knee) unavailable, which made the possibility of Hutchinson of John Metchie having a productive game. However, the offensive line put an end to any such notion. Quarterback C.J. Stroud was was sacked eight times, hit on another 11 attempts and was running for his life all game. Beyond Tank Dell's 126 yards there was little else happening for receivers. Hutchinson and Metchie (two targets, no catches) were shut out in the loss.

Robert Woods - Two catches as fill-in Woods caught two of three targets for 44 yards in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets in Week 9.
Impact Woods got the start with both Nico Collins (hamstring) and Stefon Diggs (knee) unavailable. He played 39 snaps and contributed on Houston's lone touchdown drive with a 32-yard reception in the second quarter. If Collins returns as expected for Week 10, then Woods would likely return depth role. He has seven catches on 10 targets for 90 yards in seven games played.

J.J. Taylor - Three touches in loss Taylor carried three times for 23 yards in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets.
Impact Taylor was signed to the 53-man roster, as the Texans were without Dameon Pierce (groin), and was on the field for six snaps. Dare Ogunbowale (29 snaps) moved up to second on depth chart while Taylor filled a role similar to when he was activated from the practice squad for two games earlier this season.

Dare Ogunbowale - Quiet as top backup Ogunbowale had one carry for minus-1 yards and failed to catch any of his three targets in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets.
Impact Ogunbowale was Houston's top backup at running back but did little in his 29 offensive snaps. With a healthy Joe Mixon, no backup would be expected to do much on the ground, but it was as a receiver where Ogunbowale could have made an impression. However, Houston's offensive line allowed pressure to quarterback C.J. Stroud, which made for a disjointed passing attack.

Dalton Schultz - Modest output in Week 9 loss Schultz secured three of six targets for 21 yards in the Texans' 21-13 loss to the Jets on Thursday night.
Impact Despite the absence of both Stefon Diggs (IR, knee) and Nico Collins (IR, hamstring), Schultz continued to operate in a modest role that left him with eighth sub-35-yard tally of the season. The veteran tight end has topped out at four receptions as far as a single-game high during the 2024 campaign, and with Collins likely to return for a Week 10 home clash against the Lions on Sunday, Nov. 10, Schultz is likely to remain in a largely fantasy-irrelevant role.

Tank Dell - Eclipses century mark in loss Dell secured six of nine targets for 126 yards in the Texans' 21-13 loss to the Jets on Thursday night.
Impact Dell was the last man standing of the Texans' top wideouts with Stefon Diggs (IR, knee) and Nico Collins (IR, hamstring) sidelined, and the second-year pro turned in a season-high yardage total. Dell also tied his personal best in targets for the campaign, and he should continue playing an integral role in a Week 10 interconference home showdown with the Lions on Sunday night, Nov. 10, even with Collins expected to return for that game.

Joe Mixon - Another touchdown in loss Mixon rushed 24 times for 106 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' 21-13 loss to the Jets on Thursday night. He also threw an incomplete pass on his only attempt.
Impact The Texans' passing game struggled throughout most of the night, with C.J. Stroud taking eight sacks and 11 hits overall. However, Mixon continued to produce to his typically high standard, recording his fourth consecutive 100-yard tally and his fifth rushing touchdown (sixth overall) in the last four games on a three-yard run late in the second quarter. The veteran back did go without a target for the first time all season, but Mixon boasts as reliable a floor at his position as there is in the league heading into a Week 10 Sunday night showdown against the Lions on Nov. 10.

C.J. Stroud - Miserable night in loss Stroud completed 11 of 30 passes for 191 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and rushed eight times for 59 yards in the Texans' 21-13 loss to the Jets on Thursday night. He a...
Impact For the second time in three games, Stroud was under 200 passing yards and a 50.0 percent completion rate. In Thursday's instance, he also was constantly harassed to the tune of eight sacks, including one that resulted in a fumble deep in Jets territory, and 11 hits overall. The second-year signal-caller was naturally down yet another key weapon in Stefon Diggs (IR, knee), leaving Tank Dell (six receptions, 126 yards) to garner the majority of Stroud's attention. Despite the unfavorable end result Thursday, brighter days should be ahead beginning with a Week 10 Sunday night home matchup against the Lions, considering Nico Collins (hamstring) is expected to be activated from injured reserve ahead of the interconference clash.
