Texans Activate Justin Watson From Injured Reserve

Monday, December 29, 5:35 PM

The Houston Texans announced on Monday that they activated wide receiver Justin Watson (calf) from Injured Reserve. Watson will be eligible to play in the team's Week 18 regular-season finale this Sunday against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts, but it's unclear if he'll actually be active. The Texans activating the 29-year-old this week ensures that they'll have him available for their playoff run as additional receiving depth behind Nico Collins, rookies Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel, and slot man Christian Kirk. Watson had played in only two games with Houston before landing on IR, catching three of his four targets for 30 yards. The eight-year vet probably isn't going to be a huge part of the Texans' offense the rest of the way, barring an injury to a receiver ahead of him on the depth chart.

Devontez Walker Suiting Up for Week 5 Against Texans

Sunday, October 5, 11:36 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devontez Walker (oblique) is officially active for Sunday's Week 5 contest against the Houston Texans. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. The second-year UNC product has been pretty quiet so far, other than a fluke two-touchdown game back in Week 2. He has just one catch over his last two games and played only seven percent of the offensive snaps last week. He should be avoided in fantasy football as he remains buried behind Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, DeAndre Hopkins, and Tylan Wallace.
