Okudah (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans. Okudah played 28 snaps (12 on defense, 16 on special teams) Week 11 against the Cowboys and finished with two solo tackles. However, the 2020 first-round pick will be a healthy scratch Sunday as Kris Boyd, M.J. Stewart and Ka'dar Hollman serve as the Texans' rotational corners behind Derek Stingley, Kamari Lassiter and Jalen Pitre. Okudah's next chance to play will be Week 13 against the Jaguars on Sunday, Dec. 1.

Okudah (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans. Okudah played 28 snaps (12 on defense, 16 on special teams) Week 11 against the Cowboys and finished with two solo tackles. However, the 2020 first-round pick will be a healthy scratch Sunday as Kris Boyd, M.J. Stewart and Ka'dar Hollman serve as the Texans' rotational corners behind Derek Stingley, Kamari Lassiter and Jalen Pitre. Okudah's next chance to play will be Week 13 against the Jaguars on Sunday, Dec. 1.
Okudah (quadriceps) is active for Monday night's matchup with the Cowboys. The cornerback suffered the quad injury in Week 1 and missed the next nine games, but he was activated from injured reserve Monday. Okudah should serve as a depth piece at corner against the Cowboys. The 2020 first-round pick played on five special-teams snaps but no defensive snaps in his only appearance this season.
Okudah (quadriceps) was activated from injured reserve Monday. The 2020 first-round pick from Ohio State has been sidelined since sustaining a quadriceps injury in the Texans' Week 1 win over the Colts. However, he's listed as questionable for Houston's Week 11 matchup against the Cowboys following Monday's activation. Okudah appears to be trending toward returning Monday night, as he practiced in full throughout the week. He'll likely serve as a depth piece in the Texans' secondary while also contributing on special teams if he suits up in Week 11.
Okudah (quadriceps) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against Detroit. Okudah has been on injured reserve since injuring his hip in Week 1 against the Colts. He was designated to return from IR on Monday, and while he was able to log a full practice Friday, he's not yet ready to return. Okudah's next chance at suiting up will be Week 11 against Dallas on Monday, Nov. 18.
Houston designated Okudah (hip) for return from its injured reserve list Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Okudah has spent the Texans' last eight games on the sidelines rehabbing a hip issue he picked up in Week 1 at Indianapolis, but it now seems he could have a chance to play in Week 10 versus the Lions. Houston's first official practice report of the week Wednesday will shed more light on his potential availability for that game.
Okudah (hip) will not be designated to return from injured reserve this week, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Okudah suffered the injury in Week 1 and according to Wilson, the Ohio State product was looking at about a two-month timeline in his recovery. Considering he is a couple of weeks shy of that, his continued stay on IR makes sense. With no return for Week 8 on the table and a quick turnaround to a Thursday game in Week 9, Okudah may be most likely to return to action in Week 10 against the Lions.
Okudah (hip) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday. Okudah suffered the injury during the Texans' Week 1 win over the Colts. He'll now miss at least the next four weeks, which could leave Houston light on depth in the secondary. They'll likely make a signing from their practice squad ahead of their Week 2 matchup with the Bears, while Okudah works on his recovery.
Okudah (hip) has been downgraded to out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Colts. The backup cornerback did not record a stat before exiting. Kris Boyd is Houston's other backup corner.
