Shaky 2022 debut Eberle converted his only field-goal attempt and two of four PATs during Sunday's 48-45 loss to the Seahawks.

Impact It is hard to be impressed with the fill-in kicker stepping in to convert a 49-yard field goal when Eberle also missed two extra points and sent a kickoff out of bounds. Even if Austin Seibert (groin) doesn't suit up for Week 5, Eberle is uncertain to return for another game with the Lions.

Set to start Sunday The Lions signed Eberle to the active roster Saturday.

Impact Eberle is set to fill in for Austin Seibert, who was ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks due to a groin injury. The Lions are missing a number of key offensive pieces, including D'Andre Swift (shoulder), Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) and DJ Chark (ankle), so don't expect the offense to generate enough opportunities for Eberle to be a fantasy asset Week 4.

Lands on practice squad COVID list Eberle (undisclosed) was placed on the Texans' practice squad COVID-19 list Wednesday.

Impact Eberle was elevated from the practice squad ahead of Week 16 to fill in for Ka'imi Fairbairn, who had been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. He converted two of his three field-goal attempts and all five extra-point kicks during the 41-29 win over the Chargers. However, Fairbairn was removed from league protocols Wednesday as well, so even if Eberle gains clearance before Week 17, he likely won't bump up to the active roster.

Could fill in for Fairbairn Eberle could be elevated from the practice squad for Week 16 to serve as the Texans' kicker in Sunday's game against the Chargers, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

Impact Houston placed Ka'ami Fairbairn on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday after he tested positive for the virus, tentatively leaving the Texans without a kicker on the active roster. Eberle, who agreed to a deal earlier Thursday to join Houston's practice squad, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, thus looks like the top candidate to handle kicking duties this weekend. Fairbairn is vaccinated, so he'll have a chance to clear the NFL's COVID-19 return-to-play protocol if he's asymptomatic.

The 25-year-old hasn't yet made his NFL debut, but he could be in line to play Sunday against the Chargers if Ka'imi Fairbairn (illness) is unable to return from the reserve/COVID-19 list.
