Questionable with wrist injury The Texans list Cooks as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans due to a wrist injury.

Impact Cooks' injury designation heading into the weekend comes as a surprise, as he wasn't included on the Texans' injury report until Friday. Even then, Cooks was a full participant in Houston's final practice of the week, so he may not have made the Texans aware of the injury until after the session concluded. Whatever the case, Cooks' status now warrants monitoring heading into Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. The Texans also list fellow wideout Nico Collins (groin) as questionable, but he looks less likely to play than Cooks after failing to practice in any capacity this week.

Four grabs against Vegas Cooks caught four of five targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 38-20 loss to the Raiders.

Impact While Houston quarterback Davis Mills set season highs in passing attempts, completions and yards, Cooks didn't wind up seeing much of that production. The five targets were actually a season low for the veteran wideout, although his fantasy floor remains solid as he's caught at least four passes in every game but one. With trade rumors swirling around him, Cooks' value could receive a boost if he's sent to a contender with a need for a downfield threat, but if he remains with the Texans he'll face the Titans in Week 8.

Subdued output in win Cooks caught four of six targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over Jacksonville in Week 5.

Impact There wasn't much happening in Houston's passing attack, which led to a season-low targets and yards for Cooks. He's still averaging more than eight targets per game, but the coaches realize there's a better chance to win games if quarterback Davis Mills can hand the ball off to Dameon Pierce. After 22 targets and 136 yards in Weeks 1 and 2, Cooks has a total of 20 targets (13 catches) for 99 yards the last three weeks.

Catches first touchdown Cooks caught all seven of his targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Cooks trailed teammate Nico Collins' 82 receiving yards, but he still led the Texans in both targets and receptions while scoring for the first time this season. The veteran's touchdown came from 18 yards to begin the fourth quarter, making it a one-score game after Houston trailed 21-0 early on. Despite his team ultimately losing a third straight game, Cooks now approaches Week 5's meeting with the Jaguars coming off his best performance of the campaign.

Produces 22 yards on seven targets Cooks recorded two receptions on seven targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bears.

Impact Cooks led the team in targets but turned that into very little production. His only notable gain came on a 17-yard reception late in the first quarter, though the drive ended when Davis Mills was intercepted. Cooks has 29 targets through three games, though that has turned into only 13 catches for 158 yards and no touchdowns.
