DEANDRE HOUSTON-CARSON NEWS

Questionable versus Jets Houston-Carson (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Impact Given that Houston-Carson wasn't on the Texans' injury report this week, it appears as though the illness popped up Friday night or Saturday morning. He did not travel with the team to New York, so while Houston hasn't shut the door on him playing Sunday, it appears increasingly likely that the Texans will be without their starting strong safety. If he's unable to play, Jimmie Ward figures to step back into that starting SS role opposite Jalen Pitre.

Inked by Houston The Texans signed Houston-Carson from Baltimore's practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Houston-Carson played all 17 games (six starts) with the Bears last season, recording 45 tackles (26 solo), one interception and one forced fumble, so he boasts the experience to quickly begin to contribute for his new team. This season, he has handled a depth role across four appearances, most notably stepping up for the Ravens while Marcus Williams (hamstring) was unavailable.

Impact Once the Bears placed Eddie Jackson (foot) on injured reserve after Week 11, Houston-Carson took on a full-time role. As a starter, he averaged five tackles per game and was a solid IDP option. It's possible that his solid work down the stretch helps him gain a significant role on a team as he enters unrestricted free agency.

First interception of season Houston-Carson picked off a pass and recorded five tackles in the Bears' 25-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Impact Since taking over the starting safety role in Week 12, Houston-Carson is averaging six tackles to go along with an interception. He should remain a high-floor IDP option in the fantasy playoffs.

Surprises with big game Houston-Carson notched nine tackles in the Bears' 31-10 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Impact After not having more than two tackles in any game and posting a total of eight tackles on the season, Houston-Carson was pressed into duty when Eddie Jackson (foot) left the game with an injury. If Jackson is forced to miss time, Houston-Carson could be considered as an IDP streaming option.

Active in minicamp Houston-Carson was an active participant as a member of Chicago's first-team defense during OTA sessions June 8, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.

Impact Houston-Carson was re-signed to a one-year, $1.77 million contract by the Bears in March after the defensive back ended this past season on the team's injured reserve with a forearm injury. The safety played the most defensive snaps (397) of his six-year career last season, totaling 51 tackles, four passes defended and one interception over 13 games. Houston-Carson appears healthy, and possibly primed for a larger role, after notching two interceptions of quarterback Justin Fields during team drills June 8.

Re-signs with Chicago Houston-Carson (forearm) signed a one-year, $1.77 million contract with the Bears on Saturday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Houston-Carson has primarily played on special teams during his six-year NFL career, though he played a season-high 397 defensive snaps during 2021. He recorded 51 tackles (33 solo), one interception and two fumble recoveries in 13 games before suffering a broken arm Week 14. It's unclear where Houston-Carson stands in his recovery, though he should be ready for training camp.

Ends season on injured reserve Houston-Carson (forearm) was placed on injured reserve on December 20, and he ended the season with 51 tackles, an interception and four passes defensed.

Impact After playing a backup role early in the season, Houston-Carson saw heavy snaps over a four-week period (Week 7 through Week 11) that helped him post the best season of his six-year career. Unfortunately, he broke his arm in Week 14, and he'll hope to recover from surgery fully ready for the 2022 season. He'll be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and if he can land a starting role, he showed the ability to post solid tackle totals, which could make him a sleeper IDP option.

Goes on injured reserve The Bears placed Houston-Carson (forearm) on injured reserve Monday, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Houston-Carson broke his arm in the Bears' loss to the Packers in Week 14. He'll soon undergo surgery to address the injury, so his move to IR was merely a formality. In a corresponding move, the Bears activated offensive tackle Germain Ifedi (knee) from IR.
