INJURIES

Wants to move on Cooks told front office personnel that he does not want to be part of Houston's rebuilding process, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Cooks reiterated his desire to play for a team with a chance to compete for a championship, which is unlikely to happen any time soon in Houston. This should not come as a surprise, as Cooks expressed displeasure when he wasn't moved at the trade deadline. He has a massive cap hit in the final two years of his deal, so Houston will likely have to eat a portion of his salary in order to move him. That was an obstacle the Texans ran into at the deadline.

NFL odds Week 18: Wacky wins and bad beats
Eclipses century mark in win Cooks secured five of six targets for 106 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' 32-31 win over the Colts on Sunday.
Impact If Sunday was indeed Cooks' swan song in Houston, he went out with a flourish. The veteran wideout led the Texans in receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon, and he had a key 30-yard grab on Houston's wild game-winning drive. In a somewhat tumultuous season that saw Cooks express his displeasure with not being traded to a contender at the deadline, the nine-year veteran posted a 57-699-3 line across 13 games despite the team's shaky quarterback situation. Cooks has a massive cap hit of over $26 million for 2023, so if he's indeed moving on as appears very likely, he's made a solid case heading into free agency.

Reels in four receptions Cooks caught four passes for 39 yards on seven targets against Jacksonville on Sunday.
Impact Cooks remains one of the league's better receivers in real life, but in fantasy football his impact is dulled by Houston's consistently poor quarterback play. The Texans attempted 44 passes Sunday but produced just 193 yards passing, and it's not easy for any receiver to thrive in circumstances like those. Cooks will hope to finish strong against Indianapolis in Week 18.
JANUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE
Set to suit up Sunday Cooks (personal) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars.
Impact Cooks made an appearance on Thursday's practice report as a DNP due to personal reasons, but it won't stop him from being available for Week 17 action. He'll be facing a Jacksonville defense Sunday that contained him to four catches (on six targets) for a season-low 20 yards back in Week 5.
DECEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Misses practice Thursday Cooks did not participate in Thursday's practice and was listed as "Not Injury Related - Personal" on the Texans' injury report.
Impact Cooks' absence was thus unrelated to the calf injury that forced him to miss three games before participating in last week's win over the Titans. He not only participated but caught the go-ahead touchdown against Tennessee. Houston offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton told Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle that he expects Cooks to practice Friday.

WR Brandin Cooks How Davis Mills played today following criticism in the last few weeks?
DECEMBER 24, 2022 • TENNESSEETITANS.COM
Scores in return Cooks recorded four catches on nine targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 19-14 win over the Titans.
Impact Cooks played for the first time since Week 12, and he drew nine targets on 32 pass attempts combined between the Texans' quarterbacks. He was inefficient with his opportunity overall, though he caught the game-winning score from six yards away late in the fourth quarter. Cooks also chipped in a 16-yard catch early in the third quarter to account for his longest gain of the day. He should retain a significant role in the Houston offense for the rest of the season, though poor quarterback play will likely mean he doesn't make a consistent statistical impact.

Making return Saturday Cooks (calf) is active for Saturday's game against the Titans.
Impact Even though Cooks was listed as questionable heading into Saturday, he never appeared to be at much risk of missing a fourth straight game after he closed Week 16 prep with two consecutive full practices. With Nico Collins (foot) out for the season, Cooks should step back in as Houston's undisputed No. 1 receiver the rest of the way, with the likes of Chris Moore, Phillip Dorsett and Amari Rodgers providing depth behind him. Over his first 10 appearances this season, Cooks averaged 4.4 receptions for 52 yards on 7.1 targets per contest, but he found the end zone just once.

Questionable, should play Saturday Cooks (calf) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game in Tennessee, but he's expected to be available to play, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Impact Cooks has been sidelined for the Texans' last three games with the calf injury, but after returning to practice in a limited fashion Tuesday before logging full workouts Wednesday and Thursday, he should be ready to play Saturday without any major restrictions. With Houston ruling out Nico Collins (foot) for the Week 16 contest, Cooks should slot back in as the Texans' clear No. 1 wideout, rejoining a position group that also includes Chris Moore (foot), Phillip Dorsett and Amari Rodgers. Prior to his three-game absence, Cooks compiled a 44-520-1 receiving line on 71 targets through 10 appearances.
DECEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Upgrades to full practice Cooks (calf) was a full practice participant Wednesday.
Impact He's thus on track to play for the first time since Week 12 when the Texans face the Titans on Saturday. Cooks could jump right back in as the top target for Davis Mills, especially with Nico Collins (foot) missing another practice Wednesday and Phillip Dorsett coming off a zero-catch, one-target showing on 54 snaps in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs. Chris Moore (foot) has emerged as the top target of late, getting more snaps on the perimeter the past three weeks after being largely slot-based for most of the season.

Brandin Cooks, Steven Nelson return to practice | Daily Brew The Houston Texans may two starters, WR Brandin Cooks and DB Steven Nelson, back for Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans.
DECEMBER 21, 2022 • HOUSTONTEXANS.COM
Deemed limited practice participant The Texans listed Cooks (calf) as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report.
Impact Cooks concluded last week with two consecutive limited practices, but he was ultimately ruled out ahead of Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Chiefs, marking his third straight absence. While the Texans' decision to list Cooks as a limited participant to begin Week 16 prep suggests he hasn't suffered any sort of setback, the veteran wideout may need to upgrade to full activity by Thursday to boost his odds of playing Saturday at Tennessee. At this stage of the week, the statuses of Houston's top three receivers are in flux, as Nico Collins (foot) was a non-participant Tuesday while Chris Moore (foot) joined Cooks as a limited participant.

Ruled out for Week 15 Cooks (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Impact With Nico Collins (foot) also having been ruled out, Chris Moore, Phillip Dorsett and Amari Rodgers are in line to serve as Houston's top three receivers once again this weekend. Cooks' next chance to return to action will arrive a week from Saturday against the Titans.
DECEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Reportedly not expected to play Cooks (calf) isn't expected to play Sunday against the Chiefs, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston.
Impact Cooks returned to a limited practice Thursday, but it appears as though the Texans may err on the side of caution with the veteran wideout this weekend. Also not expected to play Sunday, per Wilson, are fellow WR Nico Collins (foot) and RB Dameon Pierce.
DECEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
'Looks fast' in return to practice Cooks (calf) returned to a limited practice Thursday.
Impact Following practice, offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton told Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston that Cooks -- who has missed the past two games with a strained calf muscle --"looked fast" in his return to the practice field. Though the Texans seemed to have some initial skepticism with regard to Cooks' chances of suiting up Sunday against the Chiefs, the veteran wideout's ability to log a limited practice Thursday now presumably gives him a chance to return to action this weekend.

Impact On Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reported that Cooks was trending toward missing his third straight game Sunday against the Chiefs after going down as a non-participant in the Texans' first Week 15 practice session. While Cooks could still end up being sidelined Sunday, his return to practice Thursday leaves the door open for him to put his streak of absences to an end. The Texans will disclose after Thursday's session whether Cooks was a limited or full participant.
