The Texans will be short-handed on Sunday, without four key players.

Running back David Montgomery (groin), safety Jalen Pitre (shoulder), offensive tackle Blake Fisher (thumb) and safety Reed Blankenship (concussion/hand) will not play.

The Texans list wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) as questionable, but he is expected to play. His last game action came in 2024 when a gruesome knee injury knocked him out of the rest of that season and all of 2025.

Tight end Dalton Schultz (quad), linebacker Henry To’oTo’o (shoulder) and tight end Brevin Jordan (foot) returned to full participation in Friday’s practice and all three are good to go.
