The Houston Texans signed tight end Brevin Jordan (knee) to an undisclosed one-year contract extension on Thursday morning, according to a source. Jordan was poised for a breakout season in 2024 but tore his ACL in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears. With the extension in place, the Texans will look forward to having him back in 2025. The 24-year-old served as mostly a lead blocker in the first two games of the season behind pass-catching tight end Dalton Schultz, catching only two of his three targets for seven yards. His injury vaulted Cade Stover into a bigger role behind Schultz this year, but the rookie only has 14 receptions for 132 yards and one touchdown in 13 games played. Jordan has never had more than 20 catches, 219 receiving yards or three touchdowns in any of his four NFL seasons and won't be on the fantasy map in 2025 coming off his serious knee injury.

Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan (knee) suffered a torn ACL and will miss the remainder of the 2024 season, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC2. The 24-year-old will now set his sights on a long recovery process to prepare him for the 2025 season. The former fifth-round selection set a career-high in yards last season with 219. However, Jordan caught just one pass in each of the first two games of the season and was deployed as the No.2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz. Fantasy managers should now expect Schultz to see the lion's share of opportunities at the tight end spot in Houston, while Cade Stover should move up to the No.2 spot and see an increase in work.

The Houston Texans placed tight end Brevin Jordan (undisclosed) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday, meaning Jordan will now have to miss at least the team's next four games. Jordan will be eligible to return to play in Week 7 on the road at Lambeau Field against the Green Bay Packers. It helps explain why the Texans signed former Minnesota Vikings tight end Irv Smith to their practice squad on Tuesday. In the first two games of the season, Jordan caught only two passes on three targets for seven yards while working behind starter Dalton Schultz. With Jordan now out for the foreseeable future, the Texans will roll with rookie Cade Stover, Chris Myarick and Smith as depth behind Schultz at the position. Schultz has also been a disappointment for fantasy managers as a TE1 option through the first two weeks in 2024, catching five of six targets for only 37 yards.

Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan has been receiving praise from head coach DeMeco Ryans. Ryans told the media that Jordan is "playing fast and confidently and making some great catches." Jordan served as the backup tight end in Houston last season to Dalton Schultz and finished the campaign with 219 yards and two touchdowns on 17 catches. While this is a great sign for the 23-year-old in the long term, he still should be expected to retain a similar second-string role to Schultz in 2024. However, the former fifth-round pick has flashed at times with an eye-catching 7.6 average yards after the catch, which places him in the top-95th percentile among all tight ends, and he had an impressive 76-yard score in the wild-card game last season. Jordan could emerge as a fantasy-viable tight end if Schultz were to miss time, but for now, he has a difficult path to consistent playing time.

Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan caught both of his targets for 19 yards and one touchdown during a win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 17. Despite operating behind Dalton Schultz, Jordan was able to contribute offensively with Houston's lone receiving touchdown. On that note, Jordan doesn't see much volume when Schultz is healthy and has never been a consistent touchdown scorer. As long as he remains in a depth role, Jordan can be left off the fantasy radar.

Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan (illness) and wide receiver John Metchie III (illness) were both able to return to a limited practice session on Thursday after they did not practice with the team on Wednesday while being sick. Both players are well on their way to being available for the Week 16 contest versus the visiting Cleveland Browns. Neither Jordan nor Metchie should be on fantasy rosters in standard-sized leagues, though. Jordan has only 13 receptions on the season for 173 yards with one touchdown in 11 games. Metchie, meanwhile, had 14 receptions for 145 yards and no touchdowns in 13 games played. Houston's offense could struggle mightily without Stroud for a second straight week while turning to veteran Case Keenum, who will be making just his second start of 2023.

Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan (illness) and wide receiver John Metchie III (illness) were both not with the team for practice on Wednesday due to illnesses. Jordan and Metchie will be monitored as the week progresses, but they both have plenty of time to get right before Sunday's contest against the visiting Cleveland Browns. The 23-year-old Jordan hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 3 and only has 13 receptions for 173 yards in 11 games, so he hasn't been on the fantasy radar behind starter Dalton Schultz. Metchie is also buried on the receiver depth chart and has 14 receptions for 145 yards and no scores in 13 games in his first NFL season. Both players should be able to play in Week 16 versus Cleveland.

Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan led the team in receiving yards in their 30-6 loss against the New York Jets in Week 14. With Dalton Schultz (hamstring) out for the contest, Jordan filled in as the Texans TE1 for the second straight week. In Week 14, he caught all three of his targets for 35 yards. Houston's passing offense had trouble on Sunday in the rain as quarterback C.J. Stroud threw for just 91 yards. If Schultz can't play next week on the road against the Tennessee Titans, Jordan would see another start.
Dec 10, 2023 10:33 PM EST
Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan will step up once again as the team's top tight end option in Week 14 against the New York Jets. With Dalton Schultz (hamstring) already ruled out for the contest, Jordan should see more opportunities in Houston's passing game. Last week, the 23-year-old tight end played 75% of the team's offensive snaps while catching three passes (on five targets) for 64 yards. New York is middle of the pack against fantasy tight ends this season. But with rain and heavy winds expected in this matchup, Jordan is more of a TE2 option in Week 14.
Dec 9, 2023 6:20 PM EST
Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan could operate as the team's No. 1 tight end in Week 13 versus the Denver Broncos. With teammate Dalton Schultz (hamstring) ruled out for the first time this season, Jordan and Eric Saubert are expected to receive more snaps. So far, Jordan has the advantage in the passing attack. While Saubert has played in just three games and has not been targeted this season, Jordan has logged seven appearances with six catches, 60 yards, and one touchdown. As fantasy managers navigate injuries and bye weeks, Jordan carries some streaming appeal at the tight end position in deeper formats.

Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan (foot) should be good to go for the Week 11 matchup versus the Arizona Cardinals. The third-year tight end was able to log in a full practice on Friday after not practicing to begin the week. It appears Jordan is on track to play after missing each of the last three games due to a foot issue. However, Jordan has played a minimal role on this Texans offense to begin the season. He has five receptions for 51 yards and one touchdown this season. Fellow tight end Dalton Schultz appears healthy heading into the weekend, so Jordan will probably go back to having a minimal role in this offense.
Nov 17, 2023 9:16 PM EST
Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan (foot) has been ruled out for Week 10 versus the Cincinnati Bengals. This is hardly a surprise considering Jordan missed all three practices this week. The 23-year-old has just five catches for 51 yards and one touchdown through six games this year, so his absence isn't particularly crushing for the Texans or fantasy managers. Expect Eric Saubert to operate as the No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz until Jordan can return.
Nov 10, 2023 4:37 PM EST
Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan (foot) did not play in the team's 15-13 loss against the Carolina Panthers in Week 8, and it looks like he will miss more time with the injury. The 23-year-old is dealing with a plantar fasciitis issue in his foot. It's unclear when Jordan picked up the foot issue. But he was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday and Thursday following the team's Week 7 bye last week before being a non-participant in Friday's practice. How much time the tight end will miss remains unseen. However, he could be an injured reserve candidate.
Nov 1, 2023 12:25 AM EST
Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan played just five total snaps, all on special teams, in the 25-9 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1 of the regular season on Sunday. The Texans didn't score a single touchdown in Baltimore, with No. 1 tight end Dalton Schultz going for just two catches (four targets) for four yards. Fellow tight end Teagan Quitoriano caught his only target for an 11-yard gain. The 23-year-old Jordan didn't play at all in the preseason, either, due to a hamstring injury, and perhaps he's still not 100 percent. Jordan is currently an afterthought at the position in Houston after catching 34 passes on 56 targets for 306 yards and three touchdowns in 20 games (five starts) in his first two seasons with the team.
