Sits out practice Pitre (concussion) didn't participate in Houston's practice Wednesday.

Impact Pitre seemingly suffered a concussion during the team's Week 9 loss to Denver. The 26-year-old will have to clear the league's concussion protocol before he's eligible to return to the field. If he can't play in Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Alijah Huzzie would likely serve as the team's starting slot corner in Pitre's place.

Practices in full Thursday Pitre (foot) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact A foot injury limited Pitre's participation in Wednesday's practice, but his ability to practice in full Thursday indicates that he will be good to go for Sunday's game against the Broncos. The fourth-year corner has 39 tackles (25 solo) and five pass defenses (three interceptions) through seven regular-season games.

Nursing foot issue Pitre (foot) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

Impact Pitre was on the field for nearly all of Houston's defensive snaps during Sunday's game versus the 49ers, so it's not immediately apparent when he suffered the foot injury. In any case, he'll have two more opportunities to log a full practice before Houston releases its final practice report of the week Friday.

He's expected to continue causing problems for opposing quarterbacks in the Week 8 matchup against the 49ers.

Impact Pitre followed the eyes of Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence and stepped in front of the receiver for a potential momentum-shifting interception in the fourth quarter.

Unfortunately for Houston, Collins lost a fumble later in the quarter as the team was driving for the go-ahead score. Pitre has 14 tackles and three passes defensed, including one interception, through the first three games.

Gets extension from Houston Pitre (pectoral) has agreed to terms on a three-year extension with the Texans, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, Pitre's deal -- which is reportedly worth roughly $39 million -- includes $29.2 million in guarantees, which would make him the NFL's highest-paid nickel back. In 12 games during the 2024 regular season, the 25-year-old recorded 65 tackles and an interception prior to sustaining a season-ending pectoral injury. Per Aaron Wilson, KPRC 2 Houston, Pitre is on track to participate in OTAs, which puts the 2022 second-rounder in line to reclaim his key role in a Houston secondary that also features Derek Stingley, who the team signed to a lucrative three-year extension last month.
