Stingley recorded two tackles, an interception and two passes defensed in Monday's 34-10 win over Dallas in Week 11. Stingley halted a Dallas drive on the Houston side of the field with his second pick of the season and first since Week 2. The Texans were able to capitalize on the turnover, turning it into a Joe Mixon touchdown plunge. In addition to his two interceptions, Stingley has 36 tackles and 12 passes defensed over 11 games played.
Stingley (hip) doesn't carry an injury designation into Monday night's game against the Cowboys and is expected to play. After logging a DNP on Thursday, Stingley upgraded to limited Friday and full practice Saturday. The Texans' star corner has yet to miss a game this season and has logged 100 percent of the defensive snaps in eight of 10 contests, including four straight. On the year, Stingley has 34 tackles (25 solo) and one interception.
Stingley (hip) was a limited participant in Friday's practice. Stingley opened the week as a DNP on Thursday due to a hip issue, but he was able to return for Friday's practice, albeit in a limited capacity. If he's able to practice in full Saturday, he'll avoid an injury designation heading into Monday night's game against the Cowboys. Stingley has played every single defensive snap during the Texans' last four regular-season games, and over that span he has logged 15 tackles (10 solo) and five pass defenses.
Stingley (hip) was listed as a DNP on Thursday's injury report, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports. Stingley played all 62 defensive snaps during the Texans' Week 10 loss to the Lions and finished the game with two tackles (one solo) and one pass defense. However, it appears he may have picked up a hip injury in the process, which prevented him from practicing Thursday. Stingley will have two more chances to increase his practice participation this week ahead of Monday's game against the Cowboys.
Stingley recorded seven tackles (four solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 23-20 win versus the Bills. Stingley hadn't posted seven tackles in a single game since Week 5 of his rookie year back in 2022, so Sunday's contest was an outlier for him in that regard. That fact makes him hard to trust as an IDP option in most formats despite his clearly being a strong asset for the Texans.
Stingley recorded four tackles and two passes defensed in a 24-20 win over Jacksonville in Week 4. With the Jaguars up 20-17 late in the third quarter and trying to make it a two-score lead at Houston's one-yard line, Stingley broke up a third-and-goal pass in the end zone. Jacksonville's subsequent attempt on fourth-and-goal was stuffed by the middle of Houston's defensive line, preserving the one-score deficit. Per Pro Football Focus, Stingley posted a 90.3 coverage grade in the win. He has nine tackles, three passes defensed and one interception through four contests.
Stingley recorded 39 tackles, 13 passes defensed and five interceptions over 11 regular-season games in 2023. Stingley, a second-year cornerback and 2022 first-round draft pick, suffered a Week 3 hamstring that created issues for the defense early on, but upon his return Week 10, Stingley made an impact. He had interceptions in three straight games, including a Week 13 win over the Broncos. Stingley will return as Houston's top cornerback in 2024.
Stingley picked off a pass for the second straight game in Week 12, good for the third interception of his young career. Opposing quarterbacks have struggled mightily when targeting Stingley this season, and he'll look to build on his recent success in a Week 13 matchup versus the Broncos.
