GAME LOG

INJURIES
TE Jordan Akins expected to be game-time decision vs. Titans Tight end Jordan Akins is making progress and expected to be a game-time decision for Sunday’s matchup at Tennessee.
OCTOBER 16, 2020 • HOUSTONTEXANS.COM
Should be game-time call Akins (concussion) is expected to be a game-time decision Sunday at Tennessee, Deepi Sidhu of the Texans' official site reports.
Impact Coach Romeo Crennel said the 28-year-old "made a little progress," but he clearly remains in the concussion protocol. Akins has practiced as a limited participant in four straight sessions and appears likely to tally another one Friday, but the release of the Texans' official injury report later in the day will provide the final answer on his practice participation.
OCTOBER 16, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Limited again Thursday Akins (concussion) was limited in Thursday's practice.
Impact Akins has now logged four straight limited practices, dating back to last week, while working to progress through the league's five-step concussion protocol. If he's unable to gain full clearance ahead of Sunday's contest in Tennessee, Darren Fells will draw another start at tight end.
OCTOBER 16, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Logs limited session Akins (concussion/ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Impact Akins logged two limited practices last week before being inactive for Sunday's win over the Jaguars. While Akins' presence on the practice field to begin Week 6 is a good sign, he apparently has a new ankle injury to work through in addition to clearing the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. A return to full practice by Friday would likely erase any questions about Akins' status for this weekend's game against the Titans. Darren Fells will operate as Houston's No. 1 tight end if Akins isn't ready to play.

OCTOBER 11, 2020 • Associated Press
Not suiting up Sunday Akins (concussion) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Impact The 28-year-old practiced as a limited participant Thursday and Friday and received the questionable tag, but he won't be available Sunday after suffering the concussion last week. Akins will need to fully clear the concussion protocol before returning to game action. Darren Fells will work as Houston's top tight end in his place versus the Jags.
OCTOBER 11, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Week 5 Akins (concussion/ankle) was limited during Friday's practice and is considered questionable for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars.
Impact While it's encouraging that Akins was able to log two straight limited sessions to close out the week, he still has to clear the league's concussion protocol to suit up Sunday. If Akins is unable to play, expect Darren Fells to operate as the No. 1 tight end, while Pharaoh Brown could rotate in at the position.

OCTOBER 8, 2020 • USATODAY.COM
Listed as limited participant Akins (concussion/ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Impact Akins is clearly making progress through the league's five-step concussion protocol, but he'll need to garner full medical clearance before being allowed to retake the field. It's worth noting that the third-year tight end is dealing with an ankle injury, in addition to the concussion that forced him out of Houston's Week 4 loss to Minnesota.
OCTOBER 8, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Back at practice Akins (ankle/concussion) practiced Thursday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Impact It remains to be seen if he was limited or practiced fully, but Akins' return to the field in any capacity Thursday is a good sign after the tight end sat out Wednesday's practice.

Not practicing to start week Akins (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports. He's also dealing with an ankle injury.
Impact Akins was concussed on a helmet-to-helmet hit from Vikings safety Harrison Smith this past Sunday, which also led to an ejection for Smith. The third-year tight end was coming into his own as Houston's top pass-catcher at his position, but Akins is still dealing with the aftereffects of Smith's hit and seems unlikely to suit up Sunday against the Jaguars. Akins will need to clear the concussion protocol before he can return to the field.

OCTOBER 4, 2020 • HOUSTONTEXANS.COM
Won't return Sunday Akins has been diagnosed with a concussion and won't return to Sunday's game versus the Vikings.
Impact Akins recorded three catches for 46 yards before absorbing an illegal hit from Vikings safety Harrison Smith, who was ejected for his actions. Darren Fells will operate as the top tight end for the rest of the game while Pharaoh Brown rotates in.
OCTOBER 4, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Possible concussion Akins is being evaluated for a possible concussion Sunday against the Vikings, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Prior to his exit from the game, Akins paced the Texans with three catches for 46 yards. Darren Fells is next up for the team's pass-catching looks at tight end.

OCTOBER 4, 2020 • Associated Press
Two catches in Week 3 Akins caught two of three targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 28-21 loss to the Steelers in Week 3.
Impact Akins, who had his second catch of 20-plus yards, has 11 catches through three weeks. Darren Fells was the big name among Houston tight ends entering 2020, but Akins has passed him as the lead man. He's played 78.2 percent of the offensive snaps compared to Fells' 44.2 percent.
