BREVIN JORDAN NEWS

Torn ACL confirmed Jordan (knee), who the Texans placed on injured reserve Wednesday, is out for the season due to a torn ACL, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Jordan played a notable role as a blocked behind top tight end Dalton Schultz during Houston's first two games of the regular season, while also catching two of three targets for seven yards. He sustained the injury during the Texans' win over the Bears in Week 2 and will now turn his attention toward making a recovery for the 2025 campaign. Beginning Sunday on the road versus Minnesota, Cade Stover will be in line to handle a larger role behind Schultz. Houston also signed tight end Irv Smith to the practice squad Tuesday.

Reportedly has torn ACL Jordan, who the Texans placed on injured reserve Wednesday due to a knee injury, is reportedly recovering from a torn ACL, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Jordan caught his only target during Houston's win over the Bears on Sunday Night Football, but it appears he's since suffered a season-ending injury. The severity of Jordan's injury remains to be fully confirmed by the Texans, but it looks like Cade Stover is in line to handle an increased role behind top tight end Dalton Schultz for the rest of the year, and beginning Week 3 on the road against Minnesota.

Lands on IR Jordan (undisclosed) has been placed on IR by the Texans.

Impact Jordan will thus miss at least four games with an unspecified injury, which leaves Dalton Schultz and Cade Stover as the healthy tight ends currently on the Texans' active roster. Chris Myarick is on the team's practice squad and could be elevated ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings.

One target in win Jordan caught his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 19-13 win over the Bears in Week 2.

Impact For a second consecutive week, there wasn't much happening for Jordan, who has just three targets (two catches) for seven yards thus far. The tight end group is seeing fewer targets overall than in 2023. Houston's tight ends accounted for nearly 21 percent of the team's targets last season compared to 15 percent through the first two weeks of 2024.

Healthy snap volume Jordan caught one of two targets for three yards in Sunday's 29-27 win over the Colts in Week 1.

Impact Jordan was allotted a healthy 40 snaps in the season opener, which matches his snap count for the first five games of 2023. There are too many preferred targets ahead of him, including starting tight end Dalton Schultz, for Jordan's increased run to make a difference at this time. It does, however, indicate a certain level of confidence from the coaching staff. Jordan is looking to build off last season's second half and playoff experience, when he caught 12 of 16 targets for 19.6 yards per reception and two touchdowns over eight games.

Two catches in return Jordan caught both his targets for 16 yards in Saturday's 28-10 preseason win over the Giants.

Impact The tight end missed the Texans' preseason opener due to an undisclosed injury, but he was on the field with the first-team offense Saturday as Houston lined up in 12 personnel for both of C.J. Stroud's drives. Jordan is the team's No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz, but that could still get him on the field more than expected if offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik uses that as his base package. Jordan has never caught more than 20 passes or gained more than 219 receiving yards in a season, and his fantasy value has a firm ceiling on it as long as Schultz is healthy, but the 2021 fifth-round pick might at least get an opportunity to top those numbers in 2024.

Out against Steelers Jordan (undisclosed) is slated to miss Houston's Week 1 preseason game against the Steelers, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Jordan has been indicated as healthy so far during training camp, but an undisclosed injury will take him out from Houston's preseason opener. The 6-foot-3 tight end finished out the 2023 season with 17 grabs for 219 yards and two touchdowns, and more information on his preseason injury should be released in the coming days.

Targeted once in playoff loss Jordan failed to catch his lone target in Houston's 34-10 playoff loss to Baltimore last Saturday. He finished his third NFL season with 17 receptions on 21 targets for 219 yards a...

Impact A gifted athlete at tight end, Jordan never excelled at the blocking aspects the position often requires, which put a cap on his playing time over his three seasons in Houston. He opened the year third on the depth chart, before he was elevated when Teagan Quitoriano suffered a season-ending groin injury in October. Jordan can make plays, as evidenced by his 76-yard touchdown catch-and-run during the playoff win over Cleveland, but it's unclear if there will be any change in his usage in 2024, the final year of his rookie contract. This season's starting tight end, Dalton Schultz, becomes an unrestricted free agent, but the Texans likely want him back after a year in which he developed chemistry with rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud.

Under the weather Jordan (illness) did not practice Wednesday.

Impact Jordan started Week 16 prep sidelined, but he still has multiple days to recover before the Texans take the field Sunday against the Browns. Assuming he recovers in time, he should remain the team's No. 2 option at tight end behind Dalton Schultz, although if he were unable to suit up, Eric Saubert may see extra opportunities.

Set to fill in for Schultz again Jordan is expected to draw another start at tight end Sunday against the Jets, as Dalton Schultz (hamstring) will miss a second consecutive game.

Impact Jordan produced a season-high 64 receiving yards in last week's win over the Broncos, and with Schultz ruled out again, Jordan will have a nice opportunity to build on that performance against a Jets defense that's been vulnerable to tight ends this season. New York's tied with New Orleans for the most touchdowns allowed to the position at seven.

Good to go Sunday Jordan (foot) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Impact The third-year tight end out of Miami was able to log a full practice Friday after recording a DNP on Wednesday, and it now seems as if he's been able to move past the foot issue that's held him out of the Texans' last three games. Jordan has played a minimal role in Houston's offense thus far, catching all five of his targets for 51 yards and one touchdown.

Not practicing Thursday Jordan (foot) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact The 23-year-old tight end missed his second consecutive practice Thursday, and it seems increasingly likely that he'll be out for the second game in a row this Sunday. Jordan has seen a limited role in Houston's offense through six appearances this season, recording 51 yards on only five receptions.

Not practicing Wednesday Jordan (foot) isn't practicing Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Jordan sat out the Texans' Week 8 loss to Carolina while dealing with plantar fasciitis, and the tight end has yet to shake off the injury as Houston begins preparations for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. If Jordan misses another game, Eric Saubert -- whom Houston signed off Dallas' practice squad Tuesday -- will likely serve as the No. 2 tight end behind starter Dalton Schultz.
