Danny Amendola - Page 3 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Ruled out for Week 3 Amendola (thigh) has been ruled out for Thursday night's game against the Panthers.

Impact With Nico Collins (shoulder) having been placed on IR, Brandin Cooks and Chris Conley profile as the Texans' top healthy WRs in Week 3, while Anthony Miller and Andre Roberts are now candidates to see added looks in the team's thinned-out wideout corps.

Could face multi-week absence Amendola didn't practice Tuesday and could miss 2-to-3 weeks due to the thigh injury he suffered in Sunday's 31-21 loss to the Browns, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle report...

Impact Houston already placed another wideout Nico Collins (shoulder) on injured reserve Tuesday, and Amendola could soon join him if the Texans get the sense that the veteran slot man is trending toward the longer end of that estimated recovery timeline. The Texans have yet to provide many specifics about Amendola's injury or confirm the reported timeline, though head coach David Culley admitted Tuesday that the 35-year-old receiver likely won't play Thursday against the Panthers. Culley said that Anthony Miller would be active for the first time this season Thursday, and Miller will likely replace Amendola as Houston's primary option out of the slot.

Expected to sit out Week 3 Texans head coach David Culley acknowledged Tuesday that Amendola (thigh) likely won't be available for Thursday's game against the Panthers, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle...

Impact Meanwhile, Culley said that Anthony Miller -- who has been inactive for the Texans' first two games in coach's decisions while returning from a dislocated shoulder suffered in the preseason -- will be active Week 3, likely stepping into Amendola's role as Houston's top slot receiver. Before exiting Sunday's loss to the Browns with a thigh injury, Amendola had produced six receptions for 41 yards and a touchdown on six targets across his 28 offensive snaps through Houston's first two contests. The veteran receiver wasn't able to practice Monday due to the injury, and barring a major step forward in his activity for the next two days, he'll be included among the Texans' inactives Thursday.

Not practicing due to thigh Amendola (thigh) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate.

Impact Amendola exited Sunday's loss to Cleveland with what was called a hamstring injury at the time, but it's now being referred to as a thigh injury. The veteran slot receiver won't need much practice time to suit up, but he's also working on a short week, as the Panthers will be coming to town Thursday.

Could play Thursday Coach David Culley said Monday that Amendola (hamstring) could play in Thursday night's matchup against the Panthers, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.

Impact Amendola left Sunday's Week 2 loss to the Browns with a hamstring injury after he recorded just one catch for nine yards. His status for Thursday's matchup will likely be determined based on his participation in practice ahead of the game.

Texans Life Begins at 35 for WR Danny Amendola ' Daily Brew Houston Texans Danny Amendola joined the team last Tuesday and was very impactful Week 1 against the Jaguars.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2021 • HOUSTONTEXANS.COM

Competition coming With Anthony Miller expected to be activated Week 2, per Aaron Reiss of The Athletics, Amendola will have competition for snaps in the slot.

Impact Miller was inactive for Week 1 in what essentially was a coach's decision but likely due to the team being cautious after he suffered a shoulder injury during preseason. Amendola came up big for Houston six days after signing with the club. In just 17 snaps, he snagged all five targets and scored a touchdown. Miller, who spent all training camp with the Texans and presumably has a better grasp of the playbook than Amendola, could steal opportunities from his fellow wideout in Week 2 at Cleveland.

Texans start strong but must improve before trip to Browns

Quarterback Tyrod Taylor had a strong debut to lead the Houston Texans to a win over Jacksonville in his first game in place of Deshaun Watson

SEPTEMBER 13, 2021 • Associated Press

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.

Impact Though Miller didn't carry an injury designation into the weekend, Houston elected to scratch him to afford him more recovery time from the dislocated shoulder he suffered in mid-August. The Texans haven't announced who will enter the starting lineup in three-receiver sets alongside Brandin Cooks and Chris Conley, but given his wealth of experience out of the slot, Amendola looks like a better bet than 6-foot-4, 215-pound rookie Nico Collins to fill in for Miller. Given starting quarterback Tyrod Taylor's proclivity to favor short-yardage and intermediate targets in his prior NFL stops, Amendola could be looking at a surprising amount of volume in his Texans debut.

Finds new home in Houston Amendola agreed to a one-year contract with Houston on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Amendola has consistently been able to put up 600 receiving yards throughout his 12-year career, doing so seven times to date. But he's never topped 700, and he's only had multiple scores in a campaign on six occasions, totaling 21 TDs in 155 contests. Amendola will turn 36 during the 2021 season, but he'll have a chance to make an impact in a receiving corps with question marks behind No. 1 WR Brandin Cooks. In all likelihood, Amendola will contend for snaps with Anthony Miller (shoulder) in the slot.
