Texans injury report

No designations filed yet for Week 1.

Houston Texans (HOU) play in the AFC South and host their home games at NRG Stadium. This is our reference record for the 2026 season: the club facts, the schedule markers, and where our model sits against the Canadian market.

Regular season win total9.5 at BetMGM
Bye weekWeek 8
Week 1vs BUF, Sun 13 Sep, 1:00 p.m. ET on CBS

Win totals close when the season kicks off on Wednesday 9 September and do not reopen. The bye is the one week this team does not play, which matters for anyone tracking a season-long position.

Houston Texans roster

The Houston Texans roster below comes from our data provider, pulled on 1 September 2026. That is 80 players, which is the club’s full file as filed with the league rather than a game-day 53, and it does not separate the active roster from the practice squad. Two notes on reading it. Experience counts completed NFL seasons, so a 0 marks a rookie. A dash in the number column means no jersey has been assigned.

The Status column flags anyone the league currently lists as unavailable. IR is injured reserve; PUP is the physically unable to perform list; Suspended is a league suspension; Unavailable covers the remaining designations, which our data provider supplies as codes we would rather pass over than guess at. A blank cell means no such designation was found, which is not the same as a confirmed place on the active roster: practice-squad players sit in this list too and are not marked separately.

Rosters move constantly at this time of year, with practice-squad elevations, injury designations and waiver claims all in play. We refresh this list through the season, and the date above is the one that matters. For how the squad translates into a season-long price, the Super Bowl odds board tracks the market and our model methodology explains the projection.

Model against the market

Houston Texans odds sit in two places: the season-long markets below, which are priced now and settle in February, and the weekly lines that open once the schedule starts. These are the season-long ones.

Signal figures are our model. Market figures are the DraftKings price with the book margin removed so the two are comparable. Super Bowl prices checked 27 August 2026, AFC Championship prices checked 27 August 2026. Full workings in our model methodology and the Super Bowl odds board.
