Catches on with Miami
Houston (hamstring) agreed to a contract with the Dolphins on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The 34-year-old edge rusher previously appeared in seven games with Carolina this season, tallying a half-sack and nine tackles before he was placed on injured reserve with a hamstring strain in early November and then getting granted his release Dec. 19. Now presumably back to full health, Houston could be thrust into a significant role in Miami's wild-card matchup with the Chiefs on Saturday with the Dolphins' depth on the edge having been decimated in recent weeks. With the team's top three…read more

Exits upon request
Houston (hamstring) was waived by the Panthers on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Houston requested the release, according to Darrin Gant of the team's official site. The 34-year-old is now hoping to find himself on a contenders' roster before the 2023 campaign comes to an end after the veteran linebacker joined Carolina as a free agent this offseason to play for his former coach, Frank Reich, who was fired earlier this season. Houston's time with the Panthers will end with seven games played, nine tackles and 0.5 sacks.

Heads to IR
Houston (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: The veteran linebacker suffered a hamstring injury during the Panthers' Week 8 win over the Texans, and he was unable to practice all throughout the week. Houston will be forced to miss Carolina's next four games, with his earliest possible return coming in Week 13. Amare Barno is expected to see an increased workload on the Panthers' defense until Houston returns to the field.

Sitting against Indy
Houston (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Colts.
Analysis: Houston was unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week after hurting his hamstring in the Week 8 win over the Texans. The veteran linebacker's next chance to play will come Thursday against the Bears, though the short turnaround will make it challenging for Houston to recover from his soft-tissue injury in time to suit up for Week 10.

Exits game with hamstring injury
Houston (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Texans, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Houston had one tackle for the game before exiting the field. Amare Barno, DJ Johnson and Eku Leota are candidates for increased defensive snaps in Houston's absence.

Good to go Sunday
Houston (calf) has been deemed active ahead of Sunday's game against Seattle.
Analysis: Houston dealt with a calf injury during the leadup to Sunday's Week 3 contest for Carolina. However, this won't keep him from suiting up for the third game in a row to begin the season. Houston totaled four tackles and 0.5 sacks over the first two games of the season.

Questionable but likely to play
Houston (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, but coach Frank Reich expects him to play, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Analysis: Coming off a Week 2 in which he recorded half a sack against Derek Carr, Houston has been limited by a calf injury in practice. The 34-year-old has logged 57 percent of the Panthers' defensive snaps through two games and will now get a juicy date against a Seahawks offensive line missing both of its starting tackles.

Limited with calf injury
Houston (calf) participated in Wednesday's practice in a limited capacity.
Analysis: Houston looks to have gotten dinged up during Monday's loss to the Saints, though the fact that he was limited in Wednesday's walkthrough is encouraging. Through two contests this season, Houston has recorded four tackles (two solo), a half-sack and one pass defensed. He will work to get healthy in time for Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks.

Finds new home
Houston signed a one-year, $6 million contract with the Panthers on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Houston's last Pro-Bowl appearance was back in 2015, but the 34-year-old remains a solid pass rusher during the twilight of his career. In his last two seasons with the Ravens, he combined for 14 sacks in 29 contests, including 9.5 sacks in 2022. Even if he doesn't claim a starting gig at outside linebacker in Carolina, Houston should see plenty of snaps in a rotational role.

Activated off COVID-19 list
Houston was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Clifton Brown of the Ravens' official site reports.
Analysis: Houston missed just one game during his stint on the COVID-19 list and is expected to return in Week 17. The veteran pass rusher leads the Ravens in quarterback hits (17) and sacks (4.5), so his potential presence will be welcomed as Baltimore prepares for Matthew Stafford and the Rams' potent passing attack.

Placed on COVID-19 list
Houston (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.
Analysis: Houston is third on the team in sacks, so his potential absence would be a significant blow to an already depleted defense. If Houston isn't able to clear protocols ahead of Week 16, then Odafe Oweh and Jaylon Ferguson would be the most likely candidates to see increased snaps.

Returns with first sack
Houston totaled two solo tackles and one sack during Sunday's 23-7 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Houston was sidelined for Week 3 after landing in COVID-19 protocols, but he returned in Week 4 and registered his first sack as a Raven. The 32-year-old linebacker totaled 19 sacks across 32 games during his previous two seasons with the Colts.

Activated off COVID-19 list
The Ravens activated Houston from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Houston was deemed a close contact to Jaylon Ferguson -- who tested positive for the virus -- and was inactive against Detroit. The 32-year-old linebacker will likely return this week against the Broncos and will look to record his first sack of the 2021 season.

Hits COVID list
The Ravens placed Houston (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.
Analysis: When Jaylon Ferguson tested positive for the virus Friday morning, the search was on for his close contacts, and it appears Houston, Brandon Williams (undisclosed) and Justin Madubuike (undisclosed) will be affected. It's unclear if any of them also had positive tests, but all three are unlikely to be available Sunday at Detroit.

Chooses Baltimore
Houston signed a one-year contract worth up to $4 million with the Ravens on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Houston was offered more money by other teams but opted to sign with Baltimore to pursue a championship. The 32-year-old pass rusher has recorded at least eight sacks in each of the past four seasons and should bolster an already stout Baltimore defense.

Active against Bengals
Houston (hip) is active Week 6 against Cincinnati.
Analysis: The health of the Indianapolis defensive line was a big question mark heading into Sunday's matchup, but both Houston and fellow defensive end Denico Autry (ankle/knee) will end up on the active roster.

Questionable after not practicing
Houston (hip) didn't practice Friday and is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Analysis: Houston's limited session Thursday was sandwiched between a pair of absences, so his chances of suiting up on game day are 50/50 at best. Ben Banogu and Al-Quadin Muhammad should pick up the slack if the 31-year-old defensive end is unable to give it a go Sunday.

Dealing with new issue
Houston (hip) didn't suit up in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Houston managed through a calf issue during the first part of the 2020 season, but he appears to be managing a new issue. The veteran saw just 67 percent of defensive snaps in Week 5's loss to Cleveland, down from 79 percent just a week ago. If the hip problem forces Houston to miss game action, Ben Banogu and Al-Quadin Muhammad would be in line for an uptick in snaps.

Gearing up Sunday
Houston (calf) is active for Sunday's game versus the Vikings.
Analysis: Houston battled this injury ahead of Week 1's loss to the Jaguars, and he posted two tackles and a sack in that matchup. This could be a lingering issue this season, but it doesn't seem like it will affect the veteran defensive end at this time.

Questionable for Week 2
Houston (calf) is considered questionable for Sunday's game versus the Vikings.
Analysis: Houston was unable to practice Thursday or Friday, but he didn't practice the Friday leading up to Week 1 and still managed to record two tackles and a sack against the Jaguars. There shouldn't be too much concern about his availability heading into Week 2, but it's worth checking on his status Sunday morning before plugging him into fantasy lineups.

Gets sack in season opener
Houston had two tackles, a sack and a tackle for a loss in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville.
Analysis: Houston didn't practice Friday and was limited Thursday due to a calf injury, but he was in top form Sunday.

Ready to rock Sunday
Houston (calf) will play in Sunday's game versus the Jaguars.
Analysis: Houston didn't practice Friday and was limited Thursday, but the Colts announced that he was sidelined partially for rest purposes, so there's no reason to think he'll have a limited workload Sunday. The veteran defensive end recorded 11 sacks last season, and he has a prime matchup against the Jaguars' suspect offensive line to start the year.

Back to work Wednesday
Houston (neck) suited up in Wednesday's practice, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Analysis: Houston missed the past two days of practice with the injury, but he doesn't look in any danger of missing out on the Colts' season opener Sept. 13 in Jacksonville. Houston started every game for the Colts in 2019, racking up 11 sacks.

Sustains neck injury
Houston (neck) didn't participate in Tuesday's practice, Joel A. Erickson of the Indianapolis Star reports.
Analysis: Houston started every game for the Colts in 2019 and stacked up a whopping 11 sacks -- his highest total since 2014. There's no report of how severe this injury is, but Ben Banogu will likely take reps with the first-team defense until Houston returns.

Tallies sack and forced fumble
Houston recorded a sack and a forced fumble in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars.
Analysis: Houston will finish the 2019 campaign with 11 sacks, his highest total since a 22-sack season with the Chiefs in 2014. The veteran edge rusher is under contract with the Colts for one more season, after which he will become a free agent if his contract is not extended.

Sack streak comes to an end
Houston recorded five tackles (four solo) during Thursday's 20-17 loss to the Texans.
Analysis: Houston recorded a season-high tackle mark during Thursday's loss, but he wasn't able to bring down quarterback Deshaun Watson after having notched a sack in each of the prior six games. The 30-year-old has been a sack-dependent IDP asset for much of the season, but he performed admirably as a run stopper Week 12.

Extends sacks streak
Houston recorded a sack in Sunday's 33-13 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Houston now has a sack in six straight games, and he has eight total this year. The 30-year-old defensive end is on track for his first double-digit season in the category since 2014, but he's still a sack-dependant IDP asset, as he averages just 2.8 tackles per contest.

Sack streak hits five
Houston recorded three tackles (three solo) and a sack in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: The veteran extended his sack streak to five games, getting to Ryan Fitzpatrick on Sunday, and has six sacks in that span. Houston continues to lead all defensive ends in snaps this season, establishing himself as a viable defensive commodity in IDP formats. He'll look to extend his streak to six when he and the Colts defense take on Jacksonville for Week 11.

Sack streak continues
Houston recorded three tackles (two solo), one sack, and one forced fumble (which he recovered) during Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Houston has now successfully brought down opposing quarterbacks in four straight contests. The veteran defensive end has six sacks through eight games, and he'll look to keep his momentum up with a favorable matchup against the Dolphins on deck Week 10.

Suiting up Sunday
Houston (calf) will play in Sunday's matchup against Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Houston came into the clash with a questionable tag after he was a non-participant in Friday's practice but, as evidenced by this news, has shaken off the issue. Now that he's officially active, expect the veteran to assume his starting role at defensive end for Week 9.

Nursing calf injury
Houston (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Analysis: Houston was limited in Thursday's practice, and he wasn't able to participate in any capacity Friday. His chances of suiting up versus Pittsburgh on Sunday could come down to how well he performs during pre-game warmups. Ben Banogu would likely benefit with increased snaps if Houston were forced to miss any time.
