  • Good to go Saturday

    Harris (ankle) is active for Saturday's Week 16 clash against Kansas City.

    Analysis: Harris popped up on Houston's injury report Thursday when he didn't practice due to an ankle issue after having no designation for each of the first two sessions of the week. Despite the ominous late addition, the third-year linebacker will be able to take the field in Saturday's big AFC battle. Harris made his season debut last Sunday versus Miami following recovery from a calf injury and played 82 percent of the Texans' defensive snaps, recording eight tackles (four solo).

  • Pops up on Thursday's injury report

    Harris did not practice Thursday due to an ankle injury and is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Harris had been sidelined for Houston's first 13 games of the regular season due to a calf injury. He made his 2024 regular-season debut against the Dolphins this past Sunday and finished with eight tackles (four solo). However, Harris made an appearance on Thursday's injury report, indicating that he may have injured his ankle during practice. That puts his status for Saturday's game in doubt, and whether he plays may not be known until approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff…read more

  • Eight tackles in 2024 debut

    Harris registered eight tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 20-12 win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Harris missed the Texans' first 13 games of the 2024 regular season due to a calf injury he suffered in July. He ended up playing 51 defensive snaps Sunday and finished as the Texans' third-leading tackler behind Henry To'oTo'o (11) and Jimmie Ward (nine). Harris should see plenty of defensive snaps over the next two games due to the three-game suspension of Azeez Al-Shaair.

  • Active Sunday

    Harris (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: The linebacker has yet to play this season after injuring his calf in July. Harris was activated from injured reserve Dec. 9 and logged three practice sessions, two limited and one full, in the week leading up to this game. The third-year pro recorded 101 tackles (65 solo), including 2.0 sacks, seven pass breakups and a forced fumble in 16 regular-season games last year.

  • Activated for Week 15

    Harris (calf) was activated Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports, but he remains questionable to suit up.

    Analysis: Harris has yet to play a single snap this season after sustaining a calf injury during practice in July, but he could finally make his long-awaited debut Sunday. The linebacker appeared in 16 regular-season games for the Texans in 2023, notching 101 tackles (65 solo), 2.0 sacks, seven passes defended and one forced fumble.

  • May be able to return Week 15

    Harris (calf) is questionable to face Miami on Sunday.

    Analysis: Harris has yet to suit up this season after injuring his calf during practice in July. The third-year linebacker was designated to return from IR on Dec. 9, though he has yet to be activated. Harris logged two limited practices to begin this week before upgrading to a full session Friday, and if he's activated Saturday, he could be in line to play for the first time this season against the Dolphins on Sunday.

  • Back to practice

    Harris (calf) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Harris has been sidelined with the calf injury since early October, but he'll now be able to return to practice. The Texans will have a 21-day window during which they can evaluate Harris for potential activation to the 53-man roster, but he could return as soon as Sunday against the Dolphins if he demonstrates enough progress during the Week 15 prep. His potential return is timely, as it comes after the NFL suspended Azeez Al-Shaair three games for his concussion-causing tackle of Jacksonville…read more

  • Could be back soon

    General Manager Nick Caserio said Tuesday that Harris (calf) may be back "sooner rather than later," Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Harris has not been able to play at all this season due to a soft-tissue calf injury, but he's eligible to be activated from injured reserve as soon as Week 15 (after Houston's Week 14 bye). With teammate Azeez Al-Shaair having been issued a three-game suspension Tuesday for a brutal hit on quarterback Trevor Lawrence, Harris could be in line for a significant role as soon as he's available again.

  • Remaining sidelined

    Harris (calf) will not be designated to return from injured reserve this week, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Harris has been dealing with the injury since training camp and with another week on the shelf expected, it's not clear when he'll return to the field. His continued absence will leave the Texans without their expected starter at middle linebacker and Jake Hansen to continue handling that role in Week 8 against the Colts.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Won't return for Week 6

    Harris (calf) will remain on the Texans' injured reserve list until after Sunday's game at New England, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Harris became eligible to return from the injured reserve list ahead Week 5, but he'll now apparently need to sit out at least one more game as he works through a calf issue. Until he's able to return, 2023 fifth-rounder Henry To'oTo'o should continue to see an increased workload.

  • Out until Week 5

    Harris (calf) was placed on the Texans' injured reserve Tuesday with a designation to return

    Analysis: Harris entered training camp on the heels of an impressive sophomore campaign, during which he accrued 101 tackles (65 solo), including 2.0 sacks, seven passes defended and one forced fumble across 16 regular-season games. He injured his calf early in training camp, which was severe enough to keep him out of all four of the Texans' preseason games. Harris will now be forced to sit out for the first four regular-season games, and the earliest he can return is Week 5 against the Bills on Oct. 6.…read more

  • Could miss regular-season opener

    Harris (calf) is in jeopardy of missing the Texans' Week 1 game against the Colts, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Houston's top middle linebacker has been dealing with a calf issue since late July, and it now appears that this injury could sideline him for Houston's Week 1 contest. If Harries does miss the Texans' regular-season opener, expect Jake Hansen to work as the team's top inside linebacker.

  • Dealing with leg injury

    Harris has missed the team's last three practices due to a soft-tissue leg injury, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: The second-year linebacker was a revelation for Houston in the latter half of the team's playoff campaign, as Harris tallied 75 tackles, 2.0 sacks and an interception in his final nine games including the playoffs. While the lack of specific details regarding the injury is noteworthy, it doesn't sound as if the team expects Harris to be limited entering Week 1 come early September.

  • Finishes strong

    Harris recorded 101 tackles, seven for a loss, two sacks and a forced fumble over 16 regular-season games in 2023.

    Analysis: After being a part-timer for the first half of the season, Harris earned more playing time over the second half and finished second on the club in tackles. He also had a pick-six in Houston's postseason win over Cleveland. Harris still has two years remaining on his rookie deal and should return as a starter at outside linebacker.

  • Takes pick to house

    Harris recorded eight tackles (two for loss), including one sack, and a 48-yard interception return for a touchdown in Saturday's 45-14 wild-card playoff win over the Browns.

    Analysis: Harris' pick-six followed one by teammate Steven Nelson in the third quarter and essentially put this game to bed. Houston led 38-14 and cruised from there. The interception was Harris' first in 2023 and second of his career.

  • Logs double-digit tackles

    Harris registered 10 tackles (seven solo) and a forced fumble in Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: Harris had a solid outing Sunday as he managed to lead the team in tackles. The 22-year-old has now compiled double-digit tackles in three of the 12 games played this season, bringing his season total to 69 (43 solo).

  • Houston's leading tackler vs. Jags

    Harris recorded 12 tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 24-21 loss versus Jacksonville.

    Analysis: Harris played a season-high 66 defensive snaps in Week 12 and managed a double-digit tackle total for the first time since Week 4 versus the Steelers. It seems he may have overtaken Henry To'oTo'o as the Texans' second-most used linebacker behind Blake Cashman, and that would put him on the IDP radar for a Week 13 matchup versus the Broncos.

  • Will play Sunday

    Harris (concussion) is active for Sunday's contest against the Saints.

    Analysis: Harris missed Week 5 against the Falcons due to a concussion. He led the team with 13 tackles in the Texans' Week 4 win over the Steelers and will start at outside linebacker alongside Blake Cashman.

  • Gets questionable tag

    Harris (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Saints.

    Analysis: Harris logged a full workload at Friday's practice after consecutive days as a limited participant, so he is trending in the right direction. Still, he will need to officially clear the league's concussion protocol in order to suit up. Some combination of Cory Littleton and Jake Hansen would presumably replace his snaps at outside linebacker should he not ultimately get the green light.

  • Won't play Sunday at Atlanta

    Harris (concussion) is listed as out for Sunday's game at the Falcons.

    Analysis: Just a week removed from leading Houston in tackles in Week 4 versus Pittsburgh, Harris will now have to sit out Sunday as he recovers from a concussion. Henry To'oTo'o could see an expanded role at linebacker with Harris out.

  • Leads team in tackles

    Harris had 13 tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Steelers.

    Analysis: Harris recorded season highs in both tackles and defensive snaps (51). He's now up to 23 tackles in four games and ranks second to Henry To'oTo'o (27) on the team in that category.

    Published: Mon, Oct 2 at 7:38pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Productive in loss

    Harris recorded six tackles, including a sack, in Sunday's 25-9 loss at Baltimore.

    Analysis: Another encouraging sign for Harris is that he was on the field for a large chunk of Houston's defensive snaps in Week 1 (41). The Texans got a heavy dose of the run against the Ravens in Week 1 and should see more of the same when they welcome Indianapolis to town in Week 2.

  • Massive outing Week 16

    Harris recorded 14 tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Harris was one of four Houston defenders to log double-digit tackles, as the team struggled to get off the field against Kansas City's potent offense. This allowed the rookie linebacker to set career highs in tackles and defensive snaps (76). Harris has now totaled 55 tackles and two passes defended while playing every defensive snap in five of his nine games this season, and he'll likely serve an important role in slowing down starting Titans running back Derrick Henry in Week 16.

  • Six stops Sunday

    Harris recorded six tackles (two solo) and one pass defended in Sunday's 27-14 defeat versus the Browns.

    Analysis: Harris played every defensive snap against Cleveland after being forced out with a shoulder injury during Houston's Week 12 loss to Miami. After missing the first five games of the season on IR, the rookie outside linebacker has now recorded 22 tackles and two passes defended on 358 defensive snaps over seven contests. Harris should continue to play a prominent as the Texans travel to Dallas in Week 14.

  • Slated to play Sunday

    Harris (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Analysis: Harris was limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday, but he'll be able to suit up in Week 13 after practicing fully Friday. He's racked up 20 tackles (10 solo), a forced fumble and a pass defense over six games this year.

  • Limited participant Wednesday

    Harris (shoulder) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Harris was in pads Wednesday after missing the entire second half of the Week 12 loss to Miami. It's a hopeful sign for his chances to play Sunday against Cleveland.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Out with shoulder injury

    Harris has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Dolphins with a shoulder injury, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: With Harris now done for the rest of the afternoon, Blake Cashman is in line for an expanded linebacker role for the time being. The rookie logged two tackles before his departure, but his next chance to suit up now comes in Week 13 versus the Browns.

    Published: Sun, Nov 27 at 11:59am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Leaves with injury

    Harris has exited Sunday's game against the Dolphins with a shoulder injury.

    Analysis: Harris has played a significant role in the team's linebacker corps since debuting Week 7, after recovering from a hamstring injury that delayed his first NFL action. While Harris is out, Jake Hansen will likely see an increase in opportunity.

    Published: Sun, Nov 27 at 10:52am by Rotowire.com

  • Career-high nine tackles in loss

    Harris racked up nine tackles (four solo) and a pass defensed in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: Making his fourth appearance for the Texans, Harris set a new career high in tackles while notching his first pass defensed. The rookie linebacker played 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps in the Week 10 loss and should maintain a prominent role moving forward on a rebuilding Houston team.

  • Cleared for action Thursday

    Harris (thigh) is active for Thursday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Harris logged limited sessions on both Monday and Tuesday before upgrading as a full participant in Wednesday's practice, but he's ultimately been cleared for game action Thursday night versus Philadelphia. Expect the 21-year-old to play a prominent role within Houston's linebacker corps in what should be a tough matchup for the rookie.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Questionable for TNF

    Harris (thigh) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice and is questionable for Thursday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Harris has shown improvement throughout the week in practice, as he was a limited participant Monday and Tuesday before being upgraded to a full participant Wednesday. Even so, he'll likely need to test his injury in pregame warmups before gaining clearance to play.

  • Gaining larger role

    Harris will be the primary weak-side linebacker after the Texans released Kamu Grugier-Hill on Wednesday, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Harris, a 2022 third-round draft that missed the first five games of the season, made his NFL debut Week 7 and was given more snaps (38) than Grugier-Hill (18). Houston head coach Lovie Smith was pleased with the rookie's efforts in a loss to the Raiders and plans to give him more playing time going forward. "We found a way to start the process [Sunday]," Smith said Monday. "He didn't do anything [Sunday] that said we should give him less. To me, he did things that say we should give him more."…read more

  • Logs one tackle in debut

    Harris recorded one tackle and played 38 snaps (68 percent) in Sunday's 38-20 loss to Las Vegas in Week 7.

    Analysis: Harris, a 2022 third-round pick out of Alabama, made his NFL debut Sunday but could not stop Raiders running back Josh Jacobs from rolling up 143 yards and three touchdowns. Houston's rush defense is allowing 5.2 yards per carry and 165 rushing yards per game.

  • Activated for Week 7

    Harris (hamstring) was activated from injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: Harris missed the first four games of the campaign and was designated to return to practice Oct. 5. The rookie out of Alabama will likely make his NFL debut Sunday against the Raiders in Las Vegas.

  • Designated for return to practice

    Harris (hamstring) has been designated to return to practice Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Analysis: Harris has missed a requisite four games on IR to start the season, making him eligible to return in full as soon as the Texans are convinced he's back to full health. The rookie third-round pick is dealing with a hamstring injury that forced him to miss much of training camp.

  • To miss at least four games

    The Texans placed Harris (hamstring) on injured reserve Thursday.

    Analysis: The rookie third-round pick spent much of training camp nursing a hamstring injury, but it appears he's expected to return to the field this season. Harris' first chance to come off IR is Week 5 versus the Jaguars.

  • Nearing return to field

    Coach Lovie Smith said Monday that Harris (hamstring) is "a little bit closer" to returning to action, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: The soft-tissue injury held Harris out for most of training camp, but he's apparently progressing well in his recovery at this point. The third-round rookie out of Alabama has a good shot at a significant role on a rebuilding Texans defense once he's ready to play again, and he has the speed to keep up with just about any running back or tight end he might be matched up against in 2022.

  • Misses practice with injury

    Harris (undisclosed) didn't participate in Saturday's practice, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: The details of Harris' injury haven't been specified, but it was significant enough to sideline the rookie during camp. The Alabama product was drafted in the third round by Houston, and he will likely serve as a rotational piece behind linebacker Christian Kirksey. Harris is a tad undersized for his position as he stands 6-foot-1, but he makes up for it with his speed, as he ran a blazing 4.44 40-yard dash at the combine.
