Texans search for ways to win after failing to finish again

The Houston Texans have done a lot of good things through the first two weeks of the season

SEPTEMBER 19, 2022 • Associated Press

Ready to go Week 2 Jordan (ankle) is active for Sunday's Week 2 clash against the Broncos.

Impact The second-year tight end will therefore be available after getting a pair of limited practices in this past week. Despite a quiet Week 1 in which he saw fellow tight end O.J. Howard steal the spotlight with two touchdown receptions, Jordan's presence is valuable for what shapes up as an all-hands-on-deck game for the Texans offense against a Broncos team out for redemption following a Week 1 upset at the hands of the Seahawks.

Questionable for Week 2 Jordan (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Reference reports.

Impact Jordan missed practice entirely Thursday but sandwiched that absence between a pair of limited sessions. If Jordan sits out, O.J. Howard could see more opportunities to run routes from the tight end position while blocking specialist Pharaoh Brown should continue to lead all Houston TEs in snaps.

Misses practice Thursday Jordan (ankle) didn't practice Thursday, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Jordan was limited at Wednesday's practice, so the downgrade in participation Thursday makes his status one to monitor ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos. It's worth noting that offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton suggested to Bien-Aime earlier Thursday that the tight end was expected to play this weekend. A return to the practice field by Jordan in any capacity Friday would support that notion.

Limited by ankle issue Jordan was limited at Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Impact Jordan is nursing the injury after playing 42 of the Texans' 70 offensive snaps and logging one reception for five yards on two targets in Houston's season-opening tie with Indianapolis. Meanwhile, fellow tight end O.J. Howard (12 snaps) caught both of his targets for 38 yards and two scores, while Pharaoh Brown (46 snaps) caught his only target for 17 yards. As long as he's able to suit up Sunday against the Broncos, Jordan could draw more targets this weekend, but continued involvement on the part of Brown and Howard could limit his fantasy ceiling.

Pair of grabs in preseason win Jordan secured both targets for seven yards in the Texans' 24-20 preseason win over the Rams on Friday night.

Impact The 2021 fifth-round pick doubled up his catch total and matched his yardage tally from Saturday's preseason opener against the Saints. Jordan displayed some solid upside as a rookie on an inconsistent offense with a 20-178-3 line through nine games, and he's slated to open the 2022 season as the top tight end.

One catch in preseason opener Jordan caught his only target for seven yards in Saturday's 17-13 preseason win over the Saints.

Impact Jordan was one of two listed starters at tight end alongside Pharaoh Brown, but the latter was not targeted while Jordan hauled in his only look from backup quarterback Jeff Driskel early in the second quarter. However, Jordan was later flagged for a costly offensive pass interference penalty just two plays prior to Ka'imi Fairbairn's missed 59-yard field goal attempt heading into the half. Looking ahead, Jordan should have more of an opportunity to build rapport with starting quarterback Davis Mills during the Texans' second preseason contest against the Rams after the signal caller played just two brief series Saturday.

Possible slot fill-in Jordan can help the Texans fill their void at slot receiver, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact The Texans have a big-framed tight end in Pharaoh Brown, who can handle in-line blocking assignments, so they don't necessarily need Jordan in that role. Houston head coach Lovie Smith said the 2021 fifth-round pick can block "a little bit" -- the tight end acknowledges he has a "long way to go" as a blocker -- but the coach sees Jordan's potential in multi-tight end and fullback packages. One potential spot for the athletic 22-year-old is in the slot, where the Texans had planned on John Metchie (illness) being the starter before his unfortunate cancer diagnosis. Whatever the coaches decide, there will be a role for Jordan, who became a go-to target on third down and in red zone situations in 2021, when he had 20 catches, 178 yards and three touchdowns over nine games.

Makes plays Tuesday Jordan made several big plays during Tuesday's practice session, John Harris of the Texans' official site reports.

Impact Jordan made a couple of nice touchdown grabs, including a snag amongst three defenders. He was also featured in the Texans' two-minute drill. While Houston head coach Lovie Smith may consider Pharaoh Brown the team's starting tight end, Jordan is the superior pass-catching talent and is more likely to be the better fantasy option at the position.

Lacks chances in finale Jordan was not targeted over 27 snaps in Week 18's 28-25 loss to Tennessee.

Impact Jordan had experienced an increase in chances over the second half of the season, but the momentum stalled over the final two weeks. He averaged four targets and scored three touchdowns over seven games between Week 8 and 16 but had just one target after that. He finished the season with 20 catches on 28 targets for 178 yards and three touchdowns over nine contests. Known more for his contributions as a receiver, Jordan took over that role from Jordan Akins, who missed Week 18 due to illness and was a healthy scratch three times following Houston's Week 10 bye. Jordan is in position to be the Texans' eading pass-catching tight end in 2022, but the team needs to add a traditional blocker at the position.

Catches lone target in loss Jordan caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 23-7 loss to the 49ers.

Impact Jordan entered the game with a combined eight catches, 11 targets and one touchdown over the previous two games, but Houston's tight ends were marginalized Sunday. The position group accounted for just two of quarterback Davis Mills' 30 targets. Jordan has been the most prolific tight end since the Texans started playing him regularly and should be the only one considered for those looking at a cheap option at the position. The rookie has three receiving touchdowns, second on the team behind Brandin Cooks (six).

Leads TEs in win Jordan caught four of four targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 41-29 win over the Chargers.

Impact Jordan, who was active but did not play in Week 15, returned to a prominent role. Apparently, a hand injury was the reason for last week's lack of involvement. The rookie finished second on the team in receiving yards and has eight touches on 11 targets over the last two games in which he's gotten onto the field. Overall, Jordan's caught 19 of 27 targets for 169 yards (8.7 YPG) with three touchdowns over seven games.

Texans two-step around COVID roster shuffle for a win

Does not play Sunday Jordan was active but did not play in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Jaguars.

Impact Jordan was bedeviled by a hand injury all week leading up to the game, logging only limited practices. Jordan Akins took over as the top receiving tight end, catching two of three targets. If Jordan's healthy, he's the best value among Houston's tight ends, and he leads the position group with three touchdowns in 2021.

Active for Sunday's game Jordan (hand) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.

Impact Jordan logged limited practices Wednesday and Thursday before sitting out Friday's session. Though he's available Sunday, it remains to be seen if the tight end's hand injury will limit his workload versus Jacksonville. The 2021 fifth-rounder is coming off a Week 14 effort in which he caught four of season-high seven targets for 26 yards and a TD in Houston's loss to Seattle. With Pharaoh Brown, Jordan Akins and Antony Auclair also in the team's Week 15 TE mix, a banged-up Jordan profiles as a speculative Week 15 fantasy lineup option.

Misses practice, listed as questionable Jordan (hand) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Impact After logging limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, the tight end -- who caught four of seven targets for 26 yards and a TD in a Week 14 loss to Seattle -- didn't practice Friday, so those inclined to roll the dice on Jordan in deeper fantasy formats will want to verify his status in advance of Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff. If he's out or limited this weekend, added looks would be available for the likes of Pharaoh Brown, Jordan Akins, and Antony Auclair.

DECEMBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as LP Jordan (hand) is listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.

Impact The rookie played through the same hand injury in Sunday's 33-17 loss to Seattle, hauling in four of seven targets for 26 yards and scoring his third TD of the year (in only six games). The scoring pace is unlikely to continue in one of the league's worst offenses, but it does seem Jordan will be one of the preferred targets for QB Davis Mills to close out the season, especially during rare trips to the red zone. Jordan should be able to play this Sunday against the Jaguars.
