Surprises in Week 1 Amendola caught all five targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-21 win over the Jaguars. Impact Amendola was a late addition to the Texans' roster, signing during the practice week leading up to Week 1, so it was surprising to see him play such a big role. He played just 17 snaps and was targeted five times, including catching an eight-yard touchdown. With Anthony Miller (coach's decision) inactive, Amendola moves ahead of him on the depth chart. Whether the Texans were being overly cautious with Miller, who sustained a shoulder injury during the preseason is not known, but he did return to practice leading up to Week 1 and was off the injury report.
