Harrison Bryant - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Minimal work in win Bryant was not targeted over four snaps in Sunday's 40-20 win over the Cardinals in Week 15.

Impact Bryant returned from a four-game absence due to neck and shoulder injuries but was a third tight end behind Dalton Schultz (53 snaps) and Cade Stover (41). With Stover back from injury, Bryant should settle into a depth role.

Cleared to return Week 15 Bryant (neck/shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Impact Bryant has been cleared to return Sunday from a four-game absence due to shoulder and neck injuries. The sixth-year pro will join Cade Stover as the Texans' backup tight ends behind Dalton Schultz.

DECEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Activated from IR Bryant (neck) was activated from injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Bryant has been sidelined since Week 11 and has the chance to return after a minimum stint on injured reserve. He remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, and his status will only become official shortly before the 1 pm ET kickoff.

DECEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Designated for return from IR Bryant (neck/shoulder) had his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday.

Impact Bryant remains on injured reserve, where he was placed Nov. 15, but he can rejoin his teammates at practice. The Texans have 21 days to add Bryant back to the active roster, and such a move could occur prior to Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Bryant's participation level in practice will provide insight on how close he is to returning to game action.

DECEMBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on injured reserve The Texans placed Bryant (neck/shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday.

Impact While Bryant was placed on injured reserve, fellow tight end Cade Stover (foot) was activated from IR, and the latter will serve as the Texans' TE2 behind Dalton Schultz moving forward. Bryant will be required to miss at least four games while on IR, which makes Week 15 against the Cardinals on Sunday, Nov. 14 the earliest he can return. Luke Lachey is available off the practice squad should the Texans require more depth at tight end for as long as Bryant is on IR.

Won't play against Tennessee Bryant (neck/shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Impact Bryant was unable to practice all week due to neck and shoulder injuries, and the sixth-year pro will not be available for Sunday's AFC South tilt. Dalton Schultz (illness/shoulder) has been cleared to play against Tennessee, and Cade Stover (foot) could be activated from injured reserve to fill in as the TE2 in Bryant's absence. If Stover isn't activated, then the Texans would likely elevate Luke Lachey from the practice squad to be Schultz's backup.

NOVEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Registers DNP Thursday Bryant (neck/shoulder) did not practice Wednesday.

Impact Houston's tight end room is in flux entering Sunday's matchup against the Titans. Bryant logged a second consecutive DNP as did starting tight end Dalton Schultz (illness/shoulder). A third tight end, Cade Stover, has been designated to return from a broken foot and was a limited participant for the second straight day.

NOVEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sits out Wednesday's practice Bryant (neck / shoulder) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, the Texans official site reports.

Impact It was a busy news day for Houston's tight ends. In addition to Bryant sitting out, starting TE Dalton Schultz (shoulder) was unable to go, and Cade Stover (foot) was designated to return and practiced for the first time since breaking his foot in the season opener.

NOVEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Sunday Bryant (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Impact The 27-year-old received the questionable tag due to a shoulder injury, but his full practice Friday put him on track to be available for Sunday's divisional matchup. Bryant has just two catches for seven yards this year and should continue to operate as Houston's No. 2 tight end behind starter Dalton Schultz

NOVEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Week 10 Bryant (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.

Impact A shoulder injury prevented Bryant from participating in the first two practices of Week 10 prep, but he earned the questionable tag after logging a full practice Friday. Dalton Schultz is the only healthy tight end on the active roster, so the Texans may elevate Brevin Jordan or Cade Stover from the practice squad to provide added depth at tight end in case Bryant is unable to play Sunday.

NOVEMBER 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice Wednesday Bryant (shoulder) didn't participate in Houston's practice Wednesday.

Impact Bryant popped up on the injury report after catching one pass for two yards in the Week 9 loss to the Broncos. The Texans could be shorthanded at tight end for Sunday's matchup versus the Jaguars, as Dalton Schultz is dealing with a knee injury while Cade Stover (foot) is still on injured reserve.

NOVEMBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Logs one reception in loss Bryant caught one of two targets for two yards in Sunday's 18-15 loss to the Broncos in Week 9.

Impact Bryant played a usual role, serving as the backup tight end to Dalton Schultz, who missed a couple of sessions during the practice week leading up to the game. Bryant has two catches on six targets for six yards through six games played.

Impact Even after Schultz sat out practices Wednesday and Thursday, Houston head coach DeMeco Ryans remained confident his starting tight end would get on the field before Sunday's game. Schultz is listed as questionable but is expected to play, which means Bryant should remain the backup.

Impact Although Schultz missed the first two practices in preparation for Week 9 against the Broncos, head coach DeMeco Ryans said Thursday that he expects the starting tight end to return later this week. If Schultz isn't available to play Sunday, Bryant would step in as the starter. In that event, he may not be a big part of the passing gameplan, as it looks like Houston will be welcoming back wide receivers Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring), both of whom logged full practices Thursday.

Impact Schultz's injury coupled with the health of wide receivers Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring) -- both of whom were limited participants Wednesday -- raises Bryant's profile leading up to Week 9's home game against Denver. Of course, there's still time for Schultz to get on the practice field, and he didn't appear to be hurt last week, when he played to the final snap in Week 8's win over San Francisco. Houston head coach DeMeco Ryans didn't sound too concerned, indicating that he expects to get Schultz back as the week goes on. Bryant has one reception on four targets for five yards while playing 26 percent of the offensive snaps in the six games he's played this season.

OCTOBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Held catchless in Week 8 Bryant failed to haul in his lone target while playing 22 of the Texans' 80 snaps on offense in Sunday's 26-15 win over the 49ers.

Impact Though he's logged double-digit snaps in each of the Texans' ensuing six games since Cade Stover suffered a broken foot in the season-opening loss to the Rams, Bryant remains well behind starting tight end Dalton Schultz in terms of both usage and playing time. Through his six appearances, Bryant has been targeted just four times and has recorded a five-yard reception.

OCTOBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Untargeted Week 3 Bryant was not targeted over 17 snaps in Sunday's 17-10 loss to Jacksonville.

Impact Bryant is operating as the backup tight end to Dalton Schultz following injuries to Brevin Jordan (knee), Irv Smith (ankle) and Cade Stover (foot). Of the three injured players, only Stover is expected to play again in 2025, which means, at a minimum, Bryant will get playing time for the next two weeks.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Targeted once in loss Bryant did not catch his lone target in Monday's 20-19 loss to Tampa Bay in Week 2.

Impact Bryant was added to the 53-man roster following an injury to Cade Stover (foot). He was on the field for 37 percent of the offensive snaps, significantly lower than the 57 percent Stover had in Week 1.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Officially joins active roster Houston signed Bryant from its practice squad to its active roster Wednesday.

Impact With major contributor Cade Stover bound for the Texans' injured reserve list Wednesday, the team is trying to add depth to its 53-man roster at tight end. As of right now, Bryant and starter Dalton Schultz are the only healthy tight ends on Houston's active roster.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Headed to active roster The Texans are planning on signing Bryant to their 53-man roster Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact The 27-year-old failed to make the Texans' initial 53-man roster in late August and spent time with the practice squad. However, with the Cade Stover sustaining a broken foot in Houston's Week 1 loss, Bryant is expected to be added to the team's active roster. He'll likely play as a depth piece in the Texans' tight end corps while Stover remains sidelined.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sticking with Texans Houston signed Bryant to its practice squad Thursday.

Impact Bryant was a casualty of cutdown day Tuesday, but he's sticking with Houston after the team acquired him in a trade with the Eagles on Aug. 17. Bryant has substantial NFL experience, playing in 78 regular-season games across five NFL campaigns. The Texans have just two healthy tight ends (Dalton Schultz and Cade Stover) on their 53-man roster, so Bryant is in good position to be elevated for gameday early in the campaign.

AUGUST 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Released by Texans The Texans released Bryant on Tuesday.

Impact Bryant played 13 games with the Raiders last season and posted nine catches (12 targets) for 86 yards. He signed with the Eagles in March and was subsequently traded to the Texans on Aug. 17 in a deal that had John Metchie going the other way. However, he couldn't carve out a role, so the Texans' initial 53-man roster will feature tight ends Dalton Schultz and Cade Stover.

Impact Bryant was traded along with 2026 fifth-round pick for John Metchie and 2026 sixth-round pick. Bryant had signed with Philadelphia in March and will now compete with Cade Stover and Irv Smith to serve as Houston's No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz.
