Dalton Schultz Misses Practice Wednesday With Quad Injury

Wednesday, October 21, 3:30 PM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz (quadriceps) did not practice on Wednesday due to a quad injury, according to KPRC 2 Sports' Aaron Wilson. Schultz apparently was injured in the Week 6 win over the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars in London on Sunday, and his status for the rest of the week must be watched closely. If the 30-year-old is unable to play this weekend against the visiting New York Giants, Foster Moreau, who came out of nowhere to catch two touchdowns in London, would take on a bigger pass-catching role at the position. It would also make receivers Nico Collins, Jaylin Noel, and newcomer Marvin Harrison Jr. more intriguing in the passing attack. Schultz, 30, caught four of his six targets for 33 yards in the 34-31 win on Sunday. He blew up for 12 catches on 14 targets for 140 yards in the Sept. 20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, but other than that, Schultz has been unable to top 35 receiving yards, and he is still searching for his first touchdown of the year. Noel's emergence and the addition of Harrison to the WR room do not help Schultz's cause going forward, and neither will the return of Tank Dell (knee) from Injured Reserve.

Tyler Warren News

Tyler Warren Missing Practice on Wednesday

Wednesday, October 21, 11:14 AM

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) is not practicing on Wednesday, according to James Boyd of The Athletic. Warren popped up on the Week 6 injury list late on Saturday with a groin injury and did not play in Sunday's loss to the division-rival Tennessee Titans. The 24-year-old is off to a bad start so far this week and is very much up in the air to play on the road this Sunday against the 5-0 Minnesota Vikings. If Warren cannot return to practice and is forced to miss a second straight game, fantasy managers in deep leagues could look to Mo Alie-Cox as a touchdown-dependent QB streamer against a tough Vikings defense. Alie-Cox had only one catch for one yard with Warren out against the Titans, but that one catch went for his first touchdown reception of the 2026 season. Fantasy managers should be able to find better options to stream. Warren is a TE1 in fantasy when he is healthy. He was a Pro Bowler as a rookie in 2025 and has 30 receptions for 213 yards and two touchdowns on 36 targets through five games this year.
