Brevin Jordan: Everything you need to know

Jordan (knee) and the Texans agreed on a one-year contract extension Monday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Jordan has been sidelined for the entirety of the regular season after suffering a significant knee injury at practice in August, but he will now stick around Houston for another year. The tight end caught 17 passes for a career-high 219 yards while scoring two touchdowns in his last healthy campaign in 2023, and he'll look to get back on track in 2026.

The Texans (knee) announced Tuesday that Jordan (knee) will be placed on IR, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports. Jordan, who had worked his way back from an ACL tear suffered Week 2 of 2024 before being carted off the field Monday, appears to have suffered a second consecutive season-ending knee injury. It's a brutal development for the 2021 fifth-round pick, who had appeared positioned to make an impact in Houston's tight end corps behind Dalton Schultz this season. Instead, Jordan now faces another arduous recovery process looking ahead to the 2026 campaign, while Cade Stover and Irv Smith become positioned for expanded reserve roles behind Schultz.

Jordan (knee) was carted off the practice field Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Jordan appears to have potentially suffered a significant injury at practice Monday, though the Texans haven't yet provided an official update on his health. The tight end entered training camp as a full participant after having suffered a season-ending ACL tear Week 2 of the 2024 campaign, and he's been competing with Cade Stover and Irv Smith for reserve duties behind incumbent starting tight end Dalton Schultz.
