Could miss time Jordan, who did not play in Sunday's 15-13 loss to the Panthers, is dealing with a plantar fasciitis issue in his foot and could miss additional time, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Housto...

Impact It's unclear when Jordan picked up the foot injury, but it held him out of Friday's practice and ultimately ruled him out for Week 8. He could be a candidate to be placed on the team's IR if he's going to miss extended time.

Won't play Week 8 Jordan (foot) has been deemed out for Sunday's contest in Carolina.

Impact Jordan practiced in limited fashion Wednesday and Thursday before sitting out Friday. That unpromising sequence has resulted in him being ruled out for Week 8. Jordan hasn't gotten more than two targets or played more than 20 percent of Houston's offensive snaps in any game so far this season, so his absence Sunday is unlikely to cause many fantasy waves.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nursing foot injury Jordan (foot) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

Impact It's not clear when Jordan picked up the injury or how serious it might be at this point. Either way, he'll probably need to get back to practicing in full Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Will remain out Sunday Jordan (knee) has been downgraded to out for the remainder of Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Colts.

Impact Jordan will finish out the remainder of Sunday's game off the field, effectively ending his 2022 campaign. With the nature and severity of this knee issue still unclear, it will be worth monitoring his injury status heading into this upcoming offseason since Houston is not in contention for a playoff spot. In the short term, Jordan Akins and Teagan Quitoriano will serve as Houston's only available tight ends for the remainder of this Week 18 contest.

Exits versus Indianapolis Jordan is questionable tor return to Sunday's game against the Colts with a knee injury.

Impact Jordan did not record a target before exiting in the first half, though it's unclear when or how this injury first arose. The second-year tight end caught at least one pass in each of the Texans' previous three contests. With fellow backup O.J. Howard (hip) already inactive, Teagan Quitoriano could be in line for increased usage alongside top tight end Jordan Akins for the time being.

JANUARY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

One catch in loss Jordan caught one of three targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 31-3 loss to Jacksonville in Week 17.

Impact Jordan was more involved with Teagan Quitoriano (knee) inactive, but there wasn't much happening in the passing attack, which was held to under 200 passing yards for the eighth time. He entered the game with just three targets over the previous three weeks.

JANUARY 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Snags two catches in win Jordan caught both of his targets for 21 yards in Saturday's 19-14 win over Tennessee in Week 16.

Impact Jordan, who played just five snaps the previous week, was on the field for 36 snaps after Teagan Quitoriano left with a knee injury. Houston had made O.J. Howard inactive, which resulted Jordan receiving his most playing time since Week 9.

DECEMBER 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Five snaps in loss Jordan caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to Kansas City.

Impact Houston's top two wideouts were sidelined, so the team's tight ends were prominent in the loss with six red-zone targets and two touchdowns, but Jordan didn't get much of a cut. He played just five snaps and has seen a total of 42 over the last three games since returning from a three-week stint as a healthy scratch. Jordan held much promise entering the season after being a productive receiver over the second half of 2021, but he doesn't fit in offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton's scheme, which requires blocking tight ends to enable an effective rushing attack.

DECEMBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to active roster Jordan caught four of five targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 27-14 loss to Cleveland in Week 13.

Impact Week 13 marked the first time in four weeks that Jordan was part of the active roster. After being a healthy inactive for three weeks, Jordan played 24 snaps and was heavily involved as a target. O.J. Howard was made inactive, clearing the way for Jordan's return. While it remains uncertain why Jordan was inactive the previous three weeks, it's assumed his failings as a blocker played a role in the decision.

Inactive again Jordan (coach's decision) was inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins in Week 12.

Impact This was the third straight healthy inactive for Jordan, who has a disappointing six catches and 32 yards in 2022 after showing promise during the second half of his rookie 2021 season. Absent a steady quarterback, Houston offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton wants to run the football and places value on a blocking tight end, which Jordan has not been since entering the NFL.

NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing once again Jordan (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Jordan is now in line to miss his second consecutive contest due to a coach's decision. In his absence, Jordan Akins, O.J. Howard and Teagan Quitoriano are slated to handle Houston's tight end duties Sunday versus Washington.

NOVEMBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Healthy scratch for Week 10 Jordan (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Despite leading all Texans tight ends in the Week 9 loss to the Eagles by playing 63 percent of the snaps on offense, Jordan will find himself out of the game plan entirely Sunday as a healthy inactive. The second-year player hasn't lived up to his billing as the Texans' best pass-catching tight end since he made his return to the lineup Week 7 after a three-game absence due to an ankle sprain. In those three contests, Jordan mustered a measly 3-24-0 receiving line on 11 targets. He now looks to have been pushed out of the tight-end rotation by rookie Teagan Quitoriano, who scored a touchdown on his lone reception in his NFL debut last week. Expect the Texans to run a three-man committee at the position Sunday that will also include O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins.

NOVEMBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Targeted twice in loss Jordan caught one of two targets for five yards in Thursday's 29-17 loss to Philadelphia in Week 9.

Impact Jordan's disappointing season rolls on. After a strong second half during his rookie 2021 season, Jordan was projected as a key target for quarterback Davis Mills this season, but the former Miami Hurricane has just six catches on 17 targets for 32 yards in five games.

NOVEMBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Two catches Sunday Jordan caught two of four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Titans.

Impact No Texan other than Brandin Cooks did much through the air in this one, and while Jordan led the tight end group in targets, O.J. Howard (2-24 on three targets) and Jordan Akins (1-5 on two targets) were nearly as involved. Even rookie fullback Troy Hairston (2-7 on two targets), who came into the game with only one career catch, got in on the action. Jordan remains atop the depth chart, but the three-way split puts a firm ceiling on the fantasy value of all Houston's tight ends, even in favorable matchups.

OCTOBER 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to action Jordan failed to catch any of four targets and played 30 snaps (46 percent) in Sunday's 38-20 loss to Las Vegas in Week 7.

Impact Jordan returned from an ankle injury to lead the tight ends in snaps, but he and quarterback Davis Mills did not mesh well. Instead, it was Jordan Akins, back from exile, that was the biggest threat. He led the position group with three catches (four targets) for 68 yards. Long term, Jordan is considered the primary receiving threat, so it may just be a matter of getting over this injury.

OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Active in Week 7 Jordan (ankle) is active for Sunday's Week 7 clash against the Raiders, Drew Dougherty of the team's official site reports.

Impact The second-year tight end will therefore be active for the first time since Week 2 after finally overcoming his ankle issue. His return will make the Texans' tight end picture even murkier, as O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins remain on hand as well for snaps at the position.

OCTOBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Status in question for Week 7 Jordan (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Las Vegas.

Impact Jordan has been tending to an ankle issue since Week 2 prep and hasn't played since that game in Denver, but he may be poised for a return after capping this week with back-to-back full practices. His status will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, and if Jordan is active he'll have to contend for targets with fellow tight ends O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins.

OCTOBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Practices fully Jordan (ankle) practiced fully Thursday.

Impact Jordan, who last suited up Week 2, was limited Wednesday, but his return to a full session Thursday puts the tight end on track to suit up Sunday against the Raiders. Upon his looming return to action, Jordan looks like a hit-or-miss fantasy option, though, with O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins also in the Texans' TE mix.

OCTOBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to practice after bye Jordan (ankle) took part in practice Wednesday as a limited participant, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Impact Jordan missed three straight contests leading up to Houston's Week 6 bye, but his return to the field Wednesday in a limited capacity is a step in the right direction. Given his lengthy absence, he'll likely have to log at least one full practice Thursday and/or Friday to have a shot at playing Sunday in Las Vegas. Regardless, when available, Jordan could challenge O.J. Howard for the top spot on the depth chart at tight end.

Rookie Dameon Pierce leads Texans to 1st win of season

Running back Dameon Pierce has been Houston’s best player all season, so it was only fitting that the rookie would lead the Texans to their first victory

Remains out this week Jordan (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Impact With Jordan out again, look for O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins (a likely practice squad elevation) to lead the Texans' tight end corps against Jacksonville. That's an arrangement that led to Howard catching two of his five targets for 27 yards and Akins catching both of his targets for 33 yards in last weekend's 34-24 loss to the Chargers.

OCTOBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Still not practicing Jordan (ankle) isn't practicing Thursday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Impact Jordan hasn't practiced since tweaking his ankle in the Texans' 16-9 loss to the Broncos in Week 2 and looks to be trending toward a third consecutive absence Sunday in Jacksonville. Before the Texans formally decide on his status for the weekend, they'll wait and see if Jordan can fit in any on-field work Friday. With Pharaoh Brown having since been released and Jordan looking unlikely to be available Week 5, O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins look set to split reps at tight end against the Jaguars.

OCTOBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Still not practicing Jordan (ankle) is not participating in Wednesday's practice, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Impact Jordan is still considered day-to-day, but he's starting off a third straight week as a non-participant in practice. His absence allowed O.J. Howard to operate as Houston's top tight end Week 4, while the team released Pharaoh Brown (hip/shoulder) on Tuesday.
