Roy Lopez - Works into rotation Lopez has worked himself into the defensive-line rotation, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.
Impact Lopez, Houston's sixth-round pick in 2021, has been rotating with players that appear to be roster locks. He had sacks in each of the first two preseason games. "He's jumped into a group of guys as a rookie with some veteran guys that know how to practice and know how to play, and he has fell right in there," Houston head coach David Culley said. With the switch to a 4-3 defense, there are more opportunities for interior linemen.

Deshaun Watson - Could stay on 53-man roster The Texans may need to keep Watson on their 53-man roster even if they don't expect him to play in games, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.
Impact NFL investigators have yet to meet with Watson because they're waiting for criminal investigations to be completed. The league reportedly wants to meet with the quarterback before considering the commissioner's exempt list, which was used in the past to keep players like Michael Vick (2009), Adrian Peterson (2014) and Kareem Hunt (2018) off the field before they were officially suspended. The Texans thus may end up keeping Watson on the roster as a healthy scratch this year, likely waiting for their opportunity to trade him to another team for a haul of draft picks. Injured reserve would be an easy solution to keep Watson on the team but off of the 53-man roster, but he seems to be perfectly healthy at the moment, in part because he's done so little on the practice field this summer, mostly working with third- and fourth-stringers.

Andre Roberts - Not yet practicing Roberts hasn't been at practice recently for an unspecified reason, independent NFL journalist Aaron Wilson reports.
Impact Roberts was held out of each of Houston's first two preseason games, and he apparently hasn't joined the team for practice recently. While the Texans haven't given a reason for the 33-year-old's absence, he's expected to be ready by Week 1. Assuming he's healthy for the start of the regular season, Roberts is expected to serve as the primary return man and as a depth receiver.
