Texans | Tank Dell could miss entire season Mon May 5, 12:20 AM
Houston Texans WR Tank Dell (knee) 'will more than likely miss the 2025 season' while recovering from a knee injury, according to Jonathan Alexander of the Houston Chronicle.
| Footballguys view: This is no real surprise given the nature of his knee injury and the timing of his ACL surgery, which took place just two months ago. The timetable for ACL injuries is typically six to 12 months. Dell also dislocated his knee, tore other ligaments, and damaged his meniscus. The Texans signed Christian Kirk as a free agent this offseason and added Iowa State's Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel with the 34th and 79th pick overall, respectively, in the NFL Draft. The Texans currently have 12 receivers on their 90-man roster: Nico Collins, Kirk, Higgins, Noel, Dell, Justin Watson, Xavier Hutchinson, John Metchie III, Jared Wayne, Braxton Berrios, Johnny Johnson III, and Xavier Johnson. But by September, that number should be whittled down to six. Collins is signed through 2026, and Higgins and Noel, who are projected to be contributors sooner rather than later, will play on four-year rookie deals. |

Texans | Houston kicks the tires on Nyheim Hines Fri May 2, 02:21 PM
Free-agent RB Nyheim Hines (Browns) worked out for the Houston Texans on Thursday, May 1.
| Footballguys view: Hines hasn't played football since the 2022 season when he split time with the Colts and the Bills. He missed all of 2023 due to an accident involving a jet ski, and he couldn't get right last year with the Browns. He was declared out for the remainder of the 2024 season in late October. If healthy, the veteran back can help out in passing situations. The Texans may just be updating their emergency list here. |

Link to story Texans | Woody Marks could earn solid role Wed Apr 30, 02:58 PM
Houston Texans RB Woody Marks could have a chance to earn the No. 2 running back role at some point during the 2025 season, in the opinion of TexansWire's Cole Thompson.
| Footballguys view: As Thompson noted, it's the Joe Mixon show for another year, but Marks might have a bigger role than most Day 3 picks. He's a receiving threat that shines when asked to win in the flats on third down. That aligns with the newcomer's Fantasy Outlook in the Footballguys Rookie Draft Guide Version 3.0. Marks could earn an immediate role with sneaky value as a pass-catcher, especially with Damien Pierce, J.J. Taylor, and Dare Ogunbowale all becoming free agents after the season. |
