HOUSTON TEXANS NEWS

Jaylen Reed - Breaks plate in forearm Reed needs surgery after breaking a metal plate in his forearm during Sunday's 20-16 win over the Colts, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Reed had a metal plate in his forearm from his time at Penn State, and it was damaged while trying to bring down Jonathan Taylor in the Week 13 win. The rookie safety had just earned a starting spot after recording 12 total tackles and one fumble recovery in the Week 12 victory over the Bills. It's currently unclear how long Reed will be sidelined for, but it's unlikely that he's able to return for the Week 14 matchup against the Chiefs on Sunday.

Jaylin Noel - Targeted once in win Noel did not catch his lone target and amassed 106 return yards on two punts and three kickoffs in Sunday's 20-16 win over Indianapolis in Week 13.

Impact This has been the pattern for three consecutive games: Noel barely makes a dent on offense but is heavily involved as a returner. The silver lining on offense is that the target came in the red zone. Noel has caught 20 of 28 targets (four in the red zone) for 213 yards and one touchdown.

Cade Stover - Adds new wrinkle in win Stover caught both of his targets for 16 yards and had four carries for three yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Colts in Week 13.

Impact In addition to Stover's day job as the backup tight end to Dalton Schultz, the Texans gave him a side hustle as a short-yardage element as a runner. All four of his carries were on 3rd- or 4th-and-one situations, including three inside the red zone. The first two worked, but Indianapolis stopped it on successive tries in the fourth quarter. It was a curious decision by the coaching staff to run Stover on 4th-and-one at the Colts' 17-yard line after it didn't work on third down. At the time, Houston was leading 20-16 and the turnover on downs left the Texans vulnerable to a loss had Indianapolis scored a touchdown. That Houston added this package for Stover and used it in the red zone slightly enhances the backup tight end's value going forward.

NFL Week 13 Live Updates, Scores: Vikings vs. Seahawks, Steelers vs. Bills, More

Thanksgiving weekend rolls on with a star-studded slate on Sunday to continue Week 13 of the NFL. Here are the highlights!

4 DAYS AGO • FOX SPORTS

Xavier Hutchinson - Two catches in victory Hutchinson caught two of five targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Colts.

Impact Hutchinson finished tied for fourth on the team in receptions with tight end Cade Stover, while his 39 yards were fourth outright. The wide receiver continues to have a relatively low ceiling in Houston's offense, and he didn't necessarily get a boost from the return of C.J. Stroud in Week 13.

4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Dalton Schultz - Seven catches in win Schultz caught seven of eight targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Colts.

Impact Schultz was able to secure at least six passes for the fourth time in five games, rebounding nicely after his one-catch performance in Week 12. The tight end didn't skip a beat with the return of C.J. Stroud either, calming the nerves of fantasy managers. Schultz has now corralled 59 of 80 targets for 552 yards and a touchdown over 12 contests this season.
