  • Texans' Jared Wayne: Logs two targets in playoff loss

    Wayne failed to catch either of his two targets in Saturday's 23-14 divisional-round playoff loss to Kansas City.

    Wayne, who was recently added to the active roster, was on the field for 24 snaps, the most in his four games played during the regular season and playoffs. He's eligible to sign a reserve/future contract and could be around for offseason training activities and training camp in preparation for the 2025 season.

  • Texans' Jared Wayne: Added to active roster

    The Texans signed Wayne off their practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Wayne takes the 53-man roster spot vacated by Diontae Johnson, whom Houston cut earlier Tuesday. Wayne has been elevated numerous times already this season, appearing in three regular-season contests. He didn't catch a single pass on 40 offensive snaps, however, and is unlikely to see much playing time on offense as the Texans' fifth receiver behind Nico Collins, John Metchie, Robert Woods and Xavier Hutchinson.

  • Jared Wayne: Goes back to practice squad

    The Texans reverted Wayne to their practice squad Thursday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Wayne was elevated for the second straight week ahead of Wednesday's loss to Baltimore and logged 16 offensive snaps without receiving a target. He's now been elevated three total times this season, so the Texans would need to sign Wayne to their active roster in order for him to play Week 18 against Tennessee. However, players can be elevated from the practice squad an unlimited number of times during the postseason.

  • Texans' Jared Wayne: Elevated for Christmas Day

    The Texans elevated Wayne from the practice squad to the active roster Tuesday.

    Wayne will be elevated for a second straight week and the third time this season. He played eight offensive snaps during the Texans' Week 16 loss to the Chiefs. However, Wayne could see more snaps on offense Wednesday due to Tank Dell being out for the rest of 2024 due to a torn ACL and dislocated kneecap.

  • Jared Wayne: Reverts to practice squad

    Wayne reverted to the Texans' practice squad Monday.

    Wayne was elevated from the Texans' practice squad for the second time this season and played eight offensive snaps in Saturday's 27-19 loss to the Chiefs. However, with Tank Dell out for the rest of 2024 due to a torn ACL and dislocated kneecap, Wayne could be elevated to the active roster for the Texans' Week 17 clash against the Ravens on Wednesday.

  • Texans' Jared Wayne: Elevated Friday

    Wayne was elevated to the Texans' active roster Friday.

    Wayne made his NFL regular-season debut in the Texans' Week 13 win over the Jaguars, failing to record a stat over 31 total snaps (16 offensive and 15 on special teams). He's been added to the active roster again ahead of Week 16 with John Metchie (shoulder) ruled out for Saturday's matchup against the Chiefs. Wayne is likely to serve as a depth piece in Houston's wide receiver room Saturday.

  • Jared Wayne: Heads back to practice squad

    Wayne reverted to the Texans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

  • Texans' Jared Wayne: Getting opportunity Week 13

    The Texans elevated Wayne from their practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's battle with the Jaguars, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Wayne originally signed with Houston as an undrafted free agent in April of 2023, and he hasn't yet gotten into an NFL game. He was a standout college receiver for Pittsburgh, recording 60 catches for 1,063 yards and five touchdowns over 12 games in his final season. If Wayne is active Sunday, he'll likely see few (if any) offensive snaps due to most of the Texans' wideout corps being healthy.

  • Jared Wayne: Signs with Texans

    Wayne was signed to the Texans' practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Wayne was in Houston for a visit Tuesday and he must've impressed, earning himself an opportunity with the team's practice unit. The wide receiver was let go by the Texans in July with an injury settlement and he'll now return to the organization. With Nico Collins (hamstring) on injured reserve for at least the next four weeks, it's possible that Wayne could see an elevation to the active roster in the near future.

  • Jared Wayne: Hosted by Houston

    The Texans hosted Wayne (knee) for a visit Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Wayne signed with the Texans in April of 2023 as an undrafted free agent, and he spent most of his rookie season on the practice squad. He was waived with an injury settlement in late July due to a knee issue, but the 24-year-old wideout appears to be healthy and could return to Houston's practice squad.

  • Jared Wayne: Cut with injury settlement

    Wayne (knee) reached an injury settlement with the Texans on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    The wide receiver now has a chance to play in 2024 if he can get healthy and catch on with another team. Wayne was waived with an injury designation by Houston on Monday. The Pittsburgh product went undrafted in 2023, and he spent most of the season on Houston's practice squad but did not record a stat.

    The Texans signed Wayne to a reserve/future contract Monday.
