Stallions' Case Cookus finds Amari Rodgers for a 43-yard touchdown vs. Brahmas | UFL

MAY 4 • FOX SPORTS

Cut by Colts Indianapolis waived Rodgers on Friday.

Impact Rodgers logged a season-high 20 offensive snaps Week 6 versus Jacksonville, but he saw only two targets and didn't bring in either one. Those were the only two targets the wideout was gotten over three contests on the campaign. The Colts claimed cornerback Ameer Speed off waivers from New England in a move corresponding with Rodgers' departure.

Increased role Rodgers was targeted twice in the passing game but had no receptions in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville.

Impact Rodgers played on 20 of the offense's 78 snaps as he got more plaing time with Alec Pierce suffering a shoulder injury. Rodgers had played just five snaps on offense this season before Sunday. If Pierce is to miss time, it may be Isaiah McKenzie who gets a larger role since he's been more productive as a pass catcher (two receptions Sunday while playing just four snaps on offense), but Rodgers was the player working more as the third and fourth receiver Sunday.

Colts elevate G Ike Boettger, WR Amari Rodgers to active roster from practice squad; sign WR K.J Hamler to practice squad, release CB Darren Hall from practice squad The Colts made the roster moves on Saturday.

Sets himself up for 2023 Rodgers caught three of four targets for 22 yards in a 32-31 victory over Indianapolis in Week 18.

Impact Rodgers was given an opportunity due to a late-season injury to Nico Collins (foot) and likely played his way into the 2023 mix at wideout. Rodgers caught 12 of 17 targets for 154 yards and a touchdown over the final five games. The Texans will be hiring a new head coach and probably a new offensive coordinator, so personnel decisions are up in the air, but Rodgers has two years left on his contract. If the organization parts with Brandin Cooks, there could be a starting spot available for a wide receiver. The downside for fantasy speculators is this will be another rebuilding year in Houston with new coaches and a new quarterback.

Remains in rotation Rodgers caught both of his targets for 12 yards and ran once for four yards in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Jaguars in Week 17.

Impact Rodgers has been given a fresh start in Houston after the Packers released the 2021 third-round draft pick in November. He's made a couple of big catches for the Texans -- a 28-yard touchdown reception in the near-upset of Dallas and 37-yarder on the go-ahead drive in Week 16's win over Tennessee. Rodgers has nine catches (13 targets) for 132 yards (14.7 YPC) over the last four games.

Drops down a notch Rodgers caught one of two targets for 37 yards in Saturday's 19-14 win over Tennessee in Week 16.

Impact Rodgers' catch was a big one, setting up Houston's go-ahead score with just under three minutes left. With Brandin Cooks returning from a calf injury, Rodgers played just 14 snaps and operated as the fourth wideout, but the 23-year-old has filled in as injuries hit the team's top two wideouts. He's caught seven of 11 targets for 120 yards and a touchdown over the last three games.

Serves as third wideout Rodgers caught two of three targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to Kansas City.

Impact Rodgers, who caught four passes and his first career touchdown in Week 14, once again benefitted from Brandin Cooks (calf) and Nico Collins (foot) being unavailable. He was third among wideouts in playing time (32 snaps), behind Chris Moore (55) and Phillip Dorsett (54), and he out-targeted Dorsett for a second straight week.

Texans WR Amari Rodgers Took Advantage Of Second Chance in Cowboys Loss Second-year wide receiver Amari Rodgers played a major role in the Houston Texans surprising play against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

Amari Rodgers makes impact vs. Dallas Cowboys | Daily Brew WR Amari Rodgers had the best game of his young career on Sunday in Arlington, catching four passes for 57 yards and a touchdown.

DECEMBER 12, 2022 • HOUSTONTEXANS.COM

First career touchdown Rodgers recorded four receptions on five targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Cowboys.

Impact Rodgers appeared in his second game with the Texans and was thrust into a prominent role due to the absence of Brandin Cooks (groin) and Nico Collins (foot). He did the majority of his damage on a 28-yard touchdown catch late in the second quarter, the first score of his career. Rodgers will drop back to a peripheral role once either Cooks or Collins is able to return, though it's unclear when that may occur.

Could step in as No. 3 wideout Rodgers is expected to serve as one of the Texans' top three receivers in Sunday's game against the Cowboys with Brandin Cooks (calf) and Nico Collins (foot) both ruled out, Aaron...

Impact After being claimed off waivers from the Packers on Nov. 16, Rodgers was inactive for the Texans' subsequent two games before finally getting the chance to make his debut in last week's loss to the Browns. Rodgers went without a target on 17 snaps, but his playing time and involvement in the passing game can only go up while Texans starting quarterback Davis Mills is without his top two wideouts this week. Phillip Dorsett and Chris Moore are ahead of Rodgers on the depth chart and are likely to fill in for Cooks and Collins on the perimeter, potentially leaving Rodgers to handle the slot role that has typically been Moore's domain when Houston has its receiving corps at full health.

Suits up Week 13 Rodgers made his Texans debut in Sunday's 27-14 loss to Cleveland in Week 13.

Impact Rodgers played 17 snaps but was not given a target. Brandin Cooks' calf injury made him inactive and opened an opportunity for Rodgers, who was claimed three weeks ago after being released by Green Bay. Phillip Dorsett got most the snaps made available by Cooks' injury.
