News

  • Listed as limited Wednesday

    Fuller (hamstring) was limited at practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Fuller began last week as a limited practice participant due to the same injury, but he ultimately upgraded to a full session Friday and didn't carry a designation into Sunday's 28-22 win over the Patriots. Expect him to follow a similar path leading up to this weekend's game against the Broncos.

  • Limited impact in Week 13 win

    Fuller caught one of two targets for eight yards in Sunday's 28-22 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: Fuller battled a hamstring injury during the week, but that did not appear to be the reason for his suppressed usage. He played a relatively full game (42 snaps, 75 percent) but was not heavily involved, although he did have a long touchdown catch overturned on review. It looks like the Patriots didn't want Fuller or DeAndre Hopkins (64 yards) to beat them, which created more opportunities for Duke Johnson (five catches, 54 yards, TD) and Kenny Stills (three catches, 61 yards, TD).

  • Good to go this week

    Fuller (hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Patriots after practicing fully Friday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With the Texans kicking off at 8:20 p.m. ET on Sunday, it's reassuring that Fuller heads into the game minus any listed injury concern. As long as he's able to avoid any setbacks down the stretch, Fuller will continue to start opposite DeAndre Hopkins, a context that should lead to steady weekly volume for the duo and the occasional big play from the former.

  • Remains limited at practice

    Fuller (hamstring) remained limited at practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Fuller was also limited Wednesday, but so far there's been nothing to suggest that his Week 13 status is in peril. With that in mind, we'd expect Friday's final injury report of the week to either list the wideout as questionable or minus an injury designation for Sunday night's game against the Patriots.

  • Limited practice Wednesday

    Fuller (hamstring) was limited at practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: In his return from a three-game absence, Fuller hauled in seven of 11 targets for 140 yards in the Texans' 20-17 win over the Colts on Thursday Night Football. He did appear to tweak his hamstring while making a catch at one point in the contest, but he remained in the game. At this stage, there's nothing to suggest that Fuller's status for Sunday's tilt against the Patriots is in danger, despite his limitations in the Texans' first practice of Week 13.

  • Thrives downfield in Week 12 win

    Fuller (hamstring) secured seven of 11 targets for 140 yards in the Texans' 20-17 win over the Colts on Thursday.

    Analysis: Fuller managed to make it back from a three-game absence and have a major impact on the Texans' air attack, even as in true Fuller fashion, he also suffered an injury scare on one of his big plays. Fuller appeared a bit gimpy on his balky hamstring after notching a 51-yard grab in the third quarter, but he remained in the game and finished with the second-highest reception and receiving yardage totals of the season. Fuller also notched a 44-yard grab during the third period, and his presence…read more

  • Good to go Thursday

    Fuller (hamstring) is active for Thursday's game against the Colts.

    Analysis: In his return from a three-game absence, Fuller is expected to step back into a starting role opposite DeAndre Hopkins, giving Deshaun Watson another big-play threat on the outside. Since Fuller never put in a full practice ahead of Thursday's game, it's not clear if he's 100 percent healthy, so the Texans could be inclined to ease him back into the offense with a more limited snap count than normal.

  • Preparing to play Thursday

    Though Fuller (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Colts, the Texans are reportedly confident the receiver will play, a source tells Ed Werder of ESPN.

    Analysis: Fuller was never listed as anything more than a limited participant in practice in either of the past two weeks, but the lack of a full workout doesn't look like it will stop the 25-year-old from suiting up. Those considering Fuller for weekly lineups will still want to follow up on his status around 6:50 p.m. ET, when the Texans will release their seven-man inactive list. Before the hamstring injury cost him the past three games, Fuller had logged 34 catches for 450 yards and three touchdowns…read more

  • Questionable for Thursday's game

    Fuller (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game against the Colts.

    Analysis: Fuller was listed as a limited practice participant this week, but Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle suggested Tuesday that the wideout was viewed as a game-time decision for Thursday night's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. If the Texans err on the side of caution with Fuller on a short week, he'd presumably be on track to return to action Dec. 1, when the Texans face the Patriots in Week 13. If Fuller suits up Thursday, however, Keke Coutee's workload likely would take a hit.

  • Records another limited session

    Fuller (hamstring) was a limited participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

    Analysis: Coach Bill O'Brien told Aaron Reiss of The Athletic that Fuller will be a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup against the Colts, and his second straight limited session supports that notion. Fuller hasn't played since Week 7, and he'll presumably remain limited during Wednesday's practice. The 2016 first-round pick has a favorable matchup against an injury-riddled Colts secondary if he can return for Thursday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Uncertain for Week 12

    Fuller's status for Thursday night's game against Indianapolis will likely come down to a game-time decision as he continues his recovery from a hamstring strain, Drew Dougherty of the Texans' official site reports.

    Analysis: Fuller missed his third straight game in Sunday's 41-7 loss to the Ravens on account of the injury, with a Week 10 bye not providing enough recovery time. With Houston facing a quick turnaround in Week 12, Fuller won't have many opportunities to prove his health ahead of the contest, as the Texans aren't likely to hold any rigorous practices beforehand. Another absence against the Colts would open up more work in three-receiver sets for Kenny Stills and Keke Coutee.

  • Downgraded to out

    Fuller (hamstring) was downgraded to out ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens.

    Analysis: While Fuller did manage to practice at a limited capacity all week, he ultimately did not travel with the team to Baltimore, ruling him out for a third consecutive game. Kenny Stills will continue to operate as the No. 2 receiver in Fuller's absence, with DeAndre Carter and Keke Coutee also chipping in as depth options.

  • Listed as questionable for Week 11

    Fuller (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Despite the fact that the wideout practiced in a limited fashion all week, Wilson suggests that Fuller -- who last saw game action in Week 7 --isn't a lock to play Sunday. For now, Fuller can be viewed as a game-time decision in advance of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. If Fuller ends up out or limited for the contest, added Week 11 opportunities opposite DeAndre Hopkins would be available for Kenny Stills, as well as DeAndre Carter and possibly even Keke Coutee.

  • Gets in limited work at practice

    Fuller (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Fuller maintained his same level of activity from Wednesday, making it difficult to gauge at this stage whether he'll be ready to return from a three-week absence to play Sunday against the Ravens. The Texans will see if Fuller can graduate to full participation in their final practice of the week Friday, a development that would offer more assurance that he'll be ready to go in Baltimore.

  • Limited at practice Wednesday

    Fuller (hamstring) logged a limited practice session Wednesday.

    Analysis: Fuller last suited up Week 7, but coming off the Texans' Week 10 bye, he's back at practice and trending in the right direction as Sunday's game against the Ravens approaches. If he's cleared to play this weekend, DeAndre Carter's profile in the team's passing attack would likely take a hit Week 11.

  • Practicing Monday

    Fuller (hamstring) participated in practice Monday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Following the Texans' bye week, Fuller is among the team's players trending in the right direction in advance of Sunday's game against the Ravens. If he's able to return to action this weekend, DeAndre Carter's profile in the team's passing attack would presumably diminish.

  • Trending well in recovery

    Coach Bill O'Brien said Tuesday that Fuller (hamstring) is "making progress," but wouldn't comment on the wideout's chances of playing immediately after the Texans' Week 10 bye, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: The bye comes at a fortunate time for Fuller, who has missed the Texans' last two games with a strained hamstring. The team will presumably have a more concrete update on his status when it resumes practicing next week. Fuller's absence has allowed Kenny Stills to see more work split out wide the past two weeks while DeAndre Carter has picked up added opportunities in the slot.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Fuller (hamstring) won't travel to London for Sunday's game against the Jaguars

    Analysis: With Fuller still out, added Week 9 opportunities will be available for Kenny Stills, who started opposite DeAndre Hopkins in last weekend's win over the Raiders. Beyond that duo, DeAndre Carter is a candidate to work as the Texans' No. 3 wide receiver this Sunday, unless the team decides to work Keke Coutee back into the mix.

    Fuller (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Fuller looks like he's headed toward another absence Sunday against the Jaguars. If he remains out in Week 9, more opportunities would be available for Kenny Stills, who started opposite DeAndre Hopkins in last week's win over the Raiders.

    Fuller (hamstring) has been officially ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: With Fuller expected to miss multiple games with his hamstring injury, Kenny Stills and Keke Coutee figure to see steady work in the Texans' passing game along with top wideout DeAndre Hopkins for as long as Fuller remains unavailable.

  • Sidelined by hamstring injury

    Fuller (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimation.

    Analysis: Per Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle, Fuller seems likely to miss multiple games with his hamstring injury, which sets the stage for Kenny Stills and Keke Coutee to see steady work in the Texans' passing game along with top wideout DeAndre Hopkins for any length of time that Fuller is sidelined.

  • Likely out multiple weeks

    Fuller suffered a "rather significant" hamstring pull in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Colts and is expected to miss several weeks as a result of the injury, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Texans should provide further word on the extent of Fuller's injury within a few days, but the wideout's initial test results apparently weren't encouraging. Fuller looks on track to miss at least the Week 8 game against the Raiders, if not additional contests to follow. His likely absence should create regular spots in three-receiver sets for both Kenny Stills and Keke Coutee, with the former filling Fuller's role as a deep-ball threat.

  • Exits Sunday's game

    Fuller was forced out of Sunday's game against the Colts with a hamstring injury.

    Analysis: Fuller caught his only target for six yards before his first-quarter exit Sunday. In his absence, Kenny Stills could step back into the swing of things in his first game back since Sept. 29.

  • Puts in full practice

    Fuller (calf/oblique) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Fuller's advancement to full participation before the end of the week eliminates any concern about his availability for Sunday's game against the Colts. After a breakthrough performance (14 catches for 217 yards and three touchdowns) in the Week 5 win over Atlanta, Fuller came back to earth in the Week 6 triumph over the Chiefs, finishing with five grabs for 44 yards.

  • Logs limited practice

    Fuller (calf/oblique) was listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday.

    Analysis: The same applies to DeAndre Hopkins (ribs), but so far there's been nothing to suggest that the duo's Week 7 availability is in peril. Fuller logged 78 of a possible 89 snaps on offense in this past Sunday's 31-24 win over the Chiefs, while Hopkins was on the field for 87 snaps, so the two could've simply been limited Wednesday for maintenance purposes.

  • Misses big opportunities

    Fuller caught five of nine targets for 44 yards during Sunday's 31-24 win over the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Fuller finished second on the team in targets, but his long gain went for just 12 yards as he finished averaging 8.8 yards per carry. He also missed out on some tremendous opportunities, letting two deep passes bounce off his fingertips for what would have been a pair of easy touchdowns. It's a bit of a disappointing output for Fuller after posting monster numbers in his previous outing, especially given the inviting matchup in a high-scoring game. He remains a threat to connect on a deep pass…read more

  • Erupts in Week 5 win over Atlanta

    Fuller caught 14 of 16 targets for 217 receiving yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 53-32 win against the Falcons.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old Fuller put on a clinic against an Atlanta pass defense that entered the day allowing the eighth-fewest receptions per game to opposing wide receivers. He practically tripled previous season bests in both catches (five) and yards (69), and the deep-play threat established new career highs in receptions, yards and touchdowns as Houston kept pace in a crowded AFC South with the Week 5 victory. Upcoming next for Fuller and the Texans' receiving corps is a Kansas City defense that…read more

  • Nabs three passes in loss

    Fuller caught three of six targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to Carolina.

    Analysis: Fuller has been fairly quiet through four games this season, recording 14 catches off 23 targets for 183 yards. The 25-year-old was boom-or-bust through seven games in 2018, catching over 100 yards in three games but recording less than 50 yards in three others. While Fuller has yet to boom in 2019, he has been on the field for more than 91 percent of snaps in each game so far this season.

  • Records five receptions

    Fuller hauled in five of his seven targets for 51 yards in Week 3 against the Chargers.

    Analysis: Fuller tied for the team lead with seven targets, his second consecutive week with that mark. However, he still failed to find the end zone and broke free for only one big play of 30 yards. He was otherwise held in check by the Chargers, which is becoming a concerning trend for the perennial big-play threat. After two long catches in Week 1, Fuller has averaged only 10 yards per catch in Weeks 2 and 3 respectively. He'll look to put on a show in primetime, as the Texans draw a Week 4 matchup…read more

    Fuller was a limited participant Wednesday for non-injury reasons.

    Analysis: For the second straight week, Fuller showed up on a Wednesday injury report as a limited participant for the same non-injury reason. Last week, he was upgraded to full participation Thursday before playing 60 of 66 snaps (91 percent) Week 2, so that's what is expected for Sunday's game against the Chargers. He's caught six of 10 targets for 109 yards through two games.

  • Ties Nuk for team high in receiving

    Fuller caught four of seven targets for 40 yards during Sunday's 13-12 win against the Jaguars.

    Analysis: In the early going of 2019 Fuller has seen his per-game receiving output dip down to 54.5 from a mark of 71.2 last year, but what is of greater concern is the lack of touchdown production. The Notre Dame product owned a career TD rate of 12.1 entering this season, and during 2018 amassed an impressive four receiving scores in less than half a season. Surely it's too early to sound the alarm, especially with an upcoming matchup against a Chargers defense that's contained opponents to 217.5…read more

  • Shows deep-threat capability

    Fuller caught two of three targets for 69 yards in Monday's 30-28 loss to New Orleans in Week 1.

    Analysis: Fuller made one terrific reception, hauling in a 54-yard pass on a highly contested ball, the longest pass play of the evening. He was on the field for 65 of the team's 67 offensive snaps (97 percent), which should alleviate any concerns about last year's knee injury limiting him in any way.

  • Should be ready Week 1

    Coach Bill O'Brien confirmed Fuller is on track for Week 1 in New Orleans, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Speaking Friday morning after his team's preseason finale, O'Brien noted that Fuller looked good during training camp and should be ready for the regular-season opener. The 25-year-old didn't play in any exhibition games, with the Texans taking a cautious approach as Fuller works his way back from the ACL tear he suffered last October. His Week 1 matchup could work out favorably if the Saints use top cornerback Marshon Lattimore to shadow DeAndre Hopkins.

    Fuller, who left last Thursday's practice early, suited up for Monday's session, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: At the time, coach Bill O'Brien noted the wideout wasn't hurt and the Texans were simply being cautious with his workload, given that Fuller is bouncing back from a torn ACL he suffered last October. On the plus side, maintenance days aside, Fuller has been able to practice fully and has indicated he feels just as fast as he did pre-injury. In the 11 regular-season games he and QB DeShaun Watson have played together, Fuller has amassed 11 touchdowns.

    Though Fuller left Thursday's practice with a trainer, coach Bill O'Brien noted afterward that the wideout isn't hurt and that the Texans are simply being cautious with his workload, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: "We're just trying to manage reps," coach Bill O'Brien said with reference Fuller, who tore his ACL back on October 25 (Week 8 of the 2018 NFL season). The 2016 first-rounder hasn't played in any preseason games thus far and it appears unlikely he'll suit up for game action until Week 1 of the regular season. The fact that Fuller, a player who has relied on his wheels in the past, is coming off a serious knee injury adds an element of risk to selecting him in fantasy drafts at this stage, but…read more

    Fuller hopes to play in the preseason, noting that his surgically-repaired knee feels good, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Coach Bill O'Brien has consistently been optimistic about Fuller's rehab process, but we haven't seen any comments about participation in exhibition contests. The speedy wideout avoided the PUP list at the start of training camp and reportedly has been practicing without any limitations. Houston's next preseason game is scheduled for Saturday against the Lions.

    Fuller (knee) had no restrictions Saturday in the Texans' first practice with pads, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Fuller is just nine months removed from suffering an ACL tear, but the Texans consistently have been optimistic about his recovery timeline and now are backing it up by letting him participate in all activities. The quantity of reps may be limited still, with Fuller joining DeAndre Hopkins and a few other veterans for a scheduled day of rest Sunday. It doesn't seem out of the question for Fuller to make an appearance in a preseason game.

    Analysis: Fuller avoided the PUP list and now will participate in the Texans' first practice of training camp. It won't come as any surprise if he has limitations, considering he's exactly nine months removed from suffering a torn ACL on Oct. 25. The team has been optimistic all along that Fuller will be ready for Week 1, though he didn't take part in offseason practices.

  • Expected back Week 1

    Fuller (knee) is expected to be healthy for the start of the regular season, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: This shouldn't come as a surprise, as the expectation since Fuller suffered a torn ACL in late October was that the speedy wideout would be available Week 1 of the new campaign. The Texans did exercise Fuller's fifth-year option, so there's some incentive for the 2016 first-round pick, who has missed 17 games in the past three seasons, to stay on the field in 2019. While Fuller's availability remains a concern, the 25-year-old has consistently been a downfield threat thus far in his career,…read more

  • Locked in for fifth year

    The Texans have exercised their fifth-year option on Fuller (knee), John McClain of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: The option costs $10.162 million for 2020 and is guaranteed for injury only. Fuller is rehabbing from an ACL tear he suffered Oct. 25, with general manager Brian Gaine recently saying he expects the speedy wideout to be ready for Week 1. The jury is still out on Fuller's value to the Texans, as his excellent production while playing with Deshaun Watson -- 783 receiving yards and 11 TDs in 11 games -- has been overshadowed by a series of injuries (17 missed games in three seasons). It's also…read more

  • Optimism abounds

    General manager Brian Gaine reiterated Thursday that Fuller (knee) is expected to be ready to go for Week 1, Sarah Bishop of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Gaine said Fuller has been rehabbing in Houston all offseason and the receiver has yet to suffer a setback in his recovery from a torn ACL. Head coach Bill O'Brien expressed a similar level of optimism earlier this month and even went as far to suggest Fuller could be back on the field, in some capacity, for training camp. The Notre Dame product will be roughly nine months removed from surgery by that time, but there remains no firm timetable for his exact return to action and it wouldn't…read more

  • Could return for training camp

    Head coach Bill O'Brien recently indicated that while there isn't a firm timeline for Fuller (knee) to return to the field, the receiver has a chance to be ready for training camp, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Fuller will be roughly nine months removed from tearing the ACL in his right knee by the time training camp kicks off this summer. O'Brien has expressed optimism about the receiver's recovery numerous times this offseason, but the coach has also stated his concern with Fuller's ability to stay healthy in the future. While those concerns certainly aren't without merit considering Fuller has missed between two and seven games in each of his three professional seasons, the 2016 first-rounder at…read more

  • Recovery 'on a good track'

    Coach Bill O'Brien is encouraged by Fuller's recovery from a torn ACL in his right knee, Drew Dougherty of the Texans' official site reports. "I think he's doing really well," O'Brien said. "He's on a good track."

    Analysis: Fuller suffered a premature end to his third season at roughly the same time as Deshaun Watson's own ACL tear from 2017 -- Oct. 25 for the former versus Nov. 2 for the latter. Watson was healthy enough to play by preseason Week 2 last August, but such injuries have a variety of recovery timelines. Considering Fuller has suited up for just 31 of a possible 48 games in his career, O'Brien's words should be taken with a grain of salt. If Fuller can rejoin DeAndre Hopkins (shoulder) sooner than…read more

  • Faces challenge to stay healthy

    Coach Bill O'Brien said the Texans need to figure out how to keep Fuller (knee) and Keke Coutee healthy in 2019, Drew Dougherty of the team's official website reports.

    Analysis: The young wide receivers played just seven games apiece (including playoffs) during the 2018 campaign, with the rookie battling a nagging hamstring injury and Fuller suffering a torn ACL on Oct. 25. The latter is a far greater concern for 2019, as Fuller faces a lengthy rehab process that may stretch into training camp or even threaten his Week 1 availability. Heading into his age-25 season, the oft-injured, 180-pound wideout has piled up 783 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns in the 11 games…read more
