Torn ACL confirmed
Jordan (knee), whom the Texans placed on injured reserve Wednesday, is out for the season due to a torn ACL, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Jordan played a notable role behind top tight end Dalton Schultz during Houston's first two games of the regular season, serving as a key lead blocker while also catching two of three targets for seven yards. He sustained the knee injury during the Texans' win over the Bears in Week 2 and will now turn his attention toward making a recovery for the 2025 campaign. Beginning with Sunday's road game versus Minnesota, Cade Stover will be in line to handle a larger role behind Schultz. Houston also…read more

Reportedly has torn ACL
Jordan, who the Texans placed on injured reserve Wednesday due to a knee injury, is reportedly recovering from a torn ACL, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Jordan caught his only target during Houston's win over the Bears on Sunday Night Football, but it appears he's since suffered a season-ending injury. The severity of Jordan's injury remains to be fully confirmed by the Texans, but it looks like Cade Stover is in line to handle an increased role behind top tight end Dalton Schultz for the rest of the year, and beginning Week 3 on the road against Minnesota.

Lands on IR
The Texans placed Jordan on injured reserve Wednesday due to a knee injury, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Jordan will thus miss at least four games with the injury, which he likely sustained in this past Sunday's win over the Bears. Through the first two weeks of the season, Jordan had been serving as the top backup to starting tight end Dalton Schultz as well as an occasional lead blocker at fullback, logging two catches for seven yards on three targets. His absence for at least the next four games could free up more snaps for depth tight end Cade Stover.

One target in win
Jordan caught his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 19-13 win over the Bears in Week 2.
Analysis: For a second consecutive week, there wasn't much happening for Jordan, who has just three targets (two catches) for seven yards thus far. The tight end group is seeing fewer targets overall than in 2023. Houston's tight ends accounted for nearly 21 percent of the team's targets last season compared to 15 percent through the first two weeks of 2024.

Healthy snap volume
Jordan caught one of two targets for three yards in Sunday's 29-27 win over the Colts in Week 1.
Analysis: Jordan was allotted a healthy 40 snaps in the season opener, which matches his snap count for the first five games of 2023. There are too many preferred targets ahead of him, including starting tight end Dalton Schultz, for Jordan's increased run to make a difference at this time. It does, however, indicate a certain level of confidence from the coaching staff. Jordan is looking to build off last season's second half and playoff experience, when he caught 12 of 16 targets for 19.6 yards per…read more

Two catches in return
Jordan caught both of his targets for 16 yards in Saturday's 28-10 preseason win over the Giants.
Analysis: The tight end missed the Texans' preseason opener due to an undisclosed injury, but he was on the field with the first-team offense Saturday as Houston lined up in 12 personnel for both of C.J. Stroud's drives. Jordan is the team's No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz, but that could still get him on the field more than expected if offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik uses that as his base package. Jordan has never caught more than 20 passes or gained more than 219 receiving yards in a season,…read more

Out against Steelers
Jordan (undisclosed) is slated to miss Houston's Week 1 preseason game against the Steelers, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Jordan had been deemed healthy so far during training camp, but an undisclosed injury will take him out of Houston's preseason opener. The 6-foot-3 tight end finished out the 2023 season with 17 grabs for 219 yards and two touchdowns, and more information on his preseason injury should be released in the coming days.

Looking sharp this spring
Coach DeMeco Ryans said Jordan has improved and regularly makes highlight plays, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Jordan nonetheless finds himself in a tough position for the final year of his rookie contract, as the Texans re-signed starting tight end Dalton Schultz in March and drafted Cade Stover in the fourth round. They also have two fullbacks on the offseason roster and one of the best WR groups in the league, making it tough for Jordan to get on the field regularly as a second tight end. The 2021 fifth-round pick did well with his limited chances last year, catching 17 of 21 targets for 219 yards…read more

Targeted once in playoff loss
Jordan failed to catch his lone target in Houston's 34-10 playoff loss to Baltimore last Saturday. He finished the regular season with 17 receptions on 21 targets for 219 yards and two touchdowns over 14 games.
Analysis: A gifted athlete at tight end, Jordan has never excelled at the blocking responsibilities of the position, which has put a cap on his playing time over his three seasons in Houston. He opened the year third on the depth chart, before he was elevated when Teagan Quitoriano suffered a season-ending groin injury in October. Jordan can make plays, as evidenced by his 76-yard touchdown catch-and-run during a wild-card win over Cleveland, but there's unlikely to be much change in his usage in 2024,…read more

Scores long distance
Jordan caught his lone target for a 76-yard touchdown in Saturday's 45-14 wild-card win over the Browns.
Analysis: Jordan turned a harmless pass in the flat into the game's longest play and what turned out to be the game-winning score. He's played second fiddle to Dalton Schultz all season, but Jordan is considered the better athlete and capable of breaking away from pursuit as he did on the TD. He played 50 percent of the snaps and provided a threat behind a wideout corps that dealt with injuries. Noah Brown (five snaps) was removed from the game with a shoulder injury, while Robert Woods (15 snaps)…read more

Finds end zone in win
Jordan caught both of his targets for 19 yards and a in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Titans.
Analysis: Jordan was open in the flat and waltzed into the end zone from 12 yards out for Houston's lone offensive touchdown early in the second quarter. It was the second TD of the season for Jordan, who played 31 snaps -- the most the backup tight end has seen in a game with starter Dalton Schultz healthy. The uptick in snaps for Jordan was largely due to fullback Andrew Beck (calf) being inactive.

Good to go versus Cleveland
Jordan (illness) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's contest against the Browns.
Analysis: Jordan was able to up his practice participation throughout the week, culminating in a full session Friday. With Dalton Schultz back in the lineup, Jordan will resume his role as the backup tight end.

Limited in return to practice
Jordan (illness) was a limited practice participant Thursday.
Analysis: Jordan increased his practice activity Thursday, after he sat out Wednesday's session entirely while recovering from the illness. If Jordan is able to participate fully in Friday's session, he should be in the clear to serve as the No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz in Sunday's game against the Browns.

Sits out practice with illness
Jordan didn't practice Wednesday due to an illness.
Analysis: Jordan still has two more chances to get back on the practice field and potentially clear up concern about his availability for Sunday's game against the Browns. Assuming Jordan recovers in time to suit up this weekend, he should remain the team's No. 2 option at tight end behind Dalton Schultz.

Reduced role in Schultz return
Jordan caught his lone target for 14 yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over Tennessee.
Analysis: Jordan's increased role the last two weeks ended with the return of Dalton Schultz from a hamstring injury. Jordan entered the game having played 75 percent of the offensive snaps the previous two weeks but was back to a normal 25 percent share against Tennessee.

Leading receiver in loss
Jordan caught three of three targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Jets in Week 14.
Analysis: It's damning with faint praise, but Jordan was Houston's leading receiver Sunday. The achievement is a dubious one as it came on a day when Dalton Schultz (hamstring) and Tank Dell (lower leg) were inactive, and Nico Collins (calf) departed early in the first quarter. Those are team's top three targets. The Texans also lost quarterback C.J. Stroud to a concussion in the fourth quarter, blurring his status for Week 15 against Tennessee. Jordan has caught 12 of 15 targets for 159 yards and one…read more

Set to fill in for Schultz again
Jordan is expected to draw another start at tight end Sunday against the Jets with Dalton Schultz (hamstring) ruled out for a second consecutive game, Tyler Greenawalt of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Jordan produced a season-high 64 receiving yards in last week's win over the Broncos, and with Schultz ruled out again, the third-year tight end will have a nice opportunity to build on that performance against the Jets. The Jets enter Week 14 tied with New Orleans for the most touchdowns allowed to tight ends this season (seven).

Enjoys best game of season
Jordan caught three of four targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 22-17 win over the Broncos in Week 13.
Analysis: Jordan elevated to the top of the tight end depth chart with Dalton Schultz (hamstring) sidelined and played a season-high 51 snaps. His pass-catching ability has never been questioned, but Jordan does not provide the run-blocking ability to be an every-down player in a lot of offenses. Depending on Schultz's status for Week 14 against the Jets, Jordan could get more opportunities again next week. Additionally, a season-ending injury to Tank Dell (leg) could lead to more targets even if Schultz…read more

In line for bigger workload
Jordan is in line for an elevated workload Sunday against the Broncos with Dalton Schultz (hamstring) ruled out for that contest, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Schultz wasn't able to practice this week due to a hamstring injury, and with his status now confirmed for Week 13 action, Jordan and Eric Saubert figure to earn increased snap counts in the short term. Through eight appearances this season, Jordan has hauled in six of seven targets for 60 yards and one touchdown, so the bigger workload may not result in added attention from quarterback C.J. Stroud. Still, Saubert has no catches to his name in three games with the Texans in 2023, meaning Jordan…read more

Returns to action
Jordan was not targeted over 15 offensive snaps in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Cardinals in Week 11.
Analysis: Jordan returned to action after missing three games due to a foot injury. He was one of two active tight ends, but Dalton Schultz is the only Houston tight end that matters. Schultz, who scored his fifth touchdown Sunday, is third on the team in targets with 59 and has nearly seven times more targets than the rest of the position group combined.

Good to go Sunday
Jordan (foot) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: The third-year tight end out of Miami was able to log a full practice Friday after recording a DNP on Wednesday, and it now seems as if he's been able to move past the foot issue that's held him out of the Texans' last three games. Jordan has played a minimal role in Houston's offense thus far, catching all five of his targets for 51 yards and one touchdown.

Returns to field
Jordan (foot) practiced Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: It's not clear whether Jordan logged a limited or full practice, but either way, it's an upgrade from his DNP on Wednesday. The 23-year-old has been out of action since Week 6, but assuming he doesn't suffer any setbacks it's possible he is trending in the right direction to suit up Sunday against the Cardinals.

Not yet practicing
Jordan (foot) didn't practice Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Jordan is reportedly making solid progress in his recovery from plantar fasciitis, but whatever improvement he's made isn't enough for him to step back on the practice field. If he can't practice in any capacity Thursday or Friday, Jordan will probably be ruled out for a third consecutive game this Sunday in Cincinnati.

Jordan (foot) isn't practicing Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Jordan, who did not play in Sunday's 15-13 loss to the Panthers, is dealing with a plantar fasciitis issue in his foot and could miss additional time, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: It's unclear when Jordan picked up the foot injury, but it held him out of Friday's practice and ultimately ruled him out for Week 8. He could be a candidate to be placed on the team's IR if he's going to miss extended time.

Won't play Week 8
Jordan (foot) has been deemed out for Sunday's contest in Carolina.
Analysis: Jordan practiced in limited fashion Wednesday and Thursday before sitting out Friday. That unpromising sequence has resulted in him being ruled out for Week 8. Jordan hasn't gotten more than two targets or played more than 20 percent of Houston's offensive snaps in any game so far this season, so his absence Sunday is unlikely to cause many fantasy waves.

Untargeted again
Jordan played two offensive snaps and was not targeted in Sunday's 21-19 loss to Atlanta.
Analysis: Sunday was the third time in five games without a target for Jordan, who's played just 41 snaps (14.8 percent share) through five weeks. He's a holdover from two regimes ago and has not been an important piece under current head coach DeMeco Ryans. Jordan's touchdown catch Week 3 will likely prove to be an outlier over time.

No official targets in win
Jordan did not record a target in Sunday's 30-6 win over Pittsburgh in Week 4.
Analysis: Jordan got a look from C.J. Stroud in the red zone on Houston's opening series, but a pass interference penalty wiped out the play. The tight end is listed third on the depth chart behind Dalton Schultz and Teagan Quitoriano, but Jordan's pass-catching ability makes him a red-zone threat -- a role that resulted in a four-yard TD catch in Week 3.

Finds end zone in win
Jordan caught both of his targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-17 win over Jacksonville.
Analysis: He played just 10 snaps, but Jordan provided quarterback C.J. Stroud with another weapon in the red zone. The touchdown was his first since Dec. 12, 2021. The tight end played only special teams in Week 1 but has seen 18 percent of the combined offensive snaps in Weeks 2 and 3.

Plays offense for first time
Jordan caught both of his targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 31-20 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Jordan was used on offense for the first time this season after playing special teams only in Week 1. He was third among the position group with 15 snaps, but Jordan is considered a better ball-catcher than No. 2 tight end Teagan Quitoriano. The franchise had high hopes for Jordan when he was drafted in 2021, but the third-year veteran failed to prove he's deserving of a larger role. Dalton Schultz is the clear No. 1 at this point.

No run on offense
Jordan played five snaps on special teams in Sunday's 25-9 loss to the Ravens in Week 1.
Analysis: Jordan, who did not play during the preseason due to a hamstring injury, did not get on the field when the offense had the ball. After two seasons in which the organization tried to make Jordan its lead tight end, it looks like they've moved on. Dalton Schultz (62 snaps) and Teagan Quitoriano (22 snaps) are the top two at the position.

Appears ready to play
Jordan (hamstring) wasn't listed on Houston's injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's game at Baltimore.
Analysis: Despite having to deal with a hamstring injury back in training camp, Jordan seems to be healthy heading into his team's Week 1 game. After giving Dalton Shultz a $9 million contract during the offseason, the Texans have some incentive to funnel targets in that direction at the expense of Jordan.

Dealing with hamstring injury
Jordan's early exit from Sunday's practice was due to a hamstring injury, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Jordan and Dalton Schultz (ribs) both left practice Sunday, while Teagan Quitoriano (quadriceps) began training camp on the active/PUP list, leaving the Texans thin at tight end. Soft-tissue injuries have a tendency to linger, so Houston will likely take a cautious approach with Jordan to ensure he's healthy before the Sept. 10 regular-season opener against the Ravens.

Jordan left Sunday's practice early with an undisclosed injury, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Jordan was spotted limping to the sidelines during Sunday's practice and didn't return, so it appears he's dealing with a lower-body issue. The severity of the injury remains unclear, but if he's forced to miss additional time, Eric Tomlinson and Andrew Beck would presumably get more looks behind Dalton Schultz.

Will remain out Sunday
Jordan (knee) has been downgraded to out for the remainder of Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Colts.
Analysis: Jordan will finish out the remainder of Sunday's game off the field, effectively ending his 2022 campaign. With the nature and severity of this knee issue still unclear, it will be worth monitoring his injury status heading into this upcoming offseason since Houston is not in contention for a playoff spot. In the short term, Jordan Akins and Teagan Quitoriano will serve as Houston's only available tight ends for the remainder of this Week 18 contest.

Exits versus Indianapolis
Jordan is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts with a knee injury.
Analysis: Jordan did not record a target before exiting in the first half, though it's unclear when or how this injury first arose. The second-year tight end caught at least one pass in each of the Texans' previous three contests. With fellow backup O.J. Howard (hip) already inactive, Teagan Quitoriano could be in line for increased usage alongside top tight end Jordan Akins for the time being.

Jordan caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to Kansas City.

He played just five snaps and has seen a total of 42 over the last three games since returning from a three-week stint as a healthy scratch.

Jordan caught four of five targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 27-14 loss to Cleveland.
Analysis: Week 13 marked the first time in four weeks that Jordan was part of the active roster. After being a healthy inactive for three weeks, Jordan played 24 snaps and was heavily involved as a target. O.J. Howard was made inactive, clearing the way for Jordan's return. While it remains uncertain why Jordan was inactive the previous three weeks, it's assumed his failings as a blocker played a role in the decision.

Inactive again
Jordan (coach's decision) was inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Analysis: This was the third straight healthy inactive for Jordan, who has a disappointing six catches and 32 yards in 2022 after showing promise during the second half of his rookie 2021 season. Absent a steady quarterback, Houston offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton wants to run the football and places value on a blocking tight end, which isn't Jordan's skill set.

Not playing once again
Jordan (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Jordan is now in line to miss his second consecutive contest due to a coach's decision. In his absence, Jordan Akins, O.J. Howard and Teagan Quitoriano are slated to handle Houston's tight end duties Sunday versus Washington.

Healthy scratch for Week 10
Jordan (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: Despite leading all Texans tight ends in the Week 9 loss to the Eagles by playing 63 percent of the snaps on offense, Jordan will find himself out of the game plan entirely Sunday as a healthy inactive. The second-year player hasn't lived up to his billing as the Texans' best pass-catching tight end since he made his return to the lineup Week 7 after a three-game absence due to an ankle sprain. In those three contests, Jordan mustered a measly 3-24-0 receiving line on 11 targets. He now looks…read more

Targeted twice in loss
Jordan caught one of two targets for five yards in Thursday's 29-17 loss to Philadelphia in Week 9.
Analysis: Jordan's disappointing season rolls on. After a strong second half during his rookie 2021 season, Jordan was projected as a key target for quarterback Davis Mills this season, but the former Miami Hurricane has just six catches on 17 targets for 32 yards in five games.

Two catches Sunday
Jordan caught two of four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: No Texan other than Brandin Cooks did much through the air in this one, and while Jordan led the tight end group in targets, O.J. Howard (2-24 on three targets) and Jordan Akins (1-5 on two targets) were nearly as involved. Even rookie fullback Troy Hairston (2-7 on two targets), who came into the game with only one career catch, got in on the action. Jordan remains atop the depth chart, but the three-way split puts a firm ceiling on the fantasy value of all Houston's tight ends, even in…read more

Returns to action
Jordan failed to catch any of his four targets and played 30 snaps (46 percent) in Sunday's 38-20 loss to Las Vegas.
Analysis: Jordan returned from an ankle injury to lead Houston tight ends in snaps, but he and quarterback Davis Mills did not mesh well. Instead, it was Jordan Akins, back from exile, who was the biggest threat as he led the position group with three catches on four targets for 68 yards. Long term, Jordan is considered the higher-upside receiving threat, so his quiet performance may just be a matter of getting over his injury.

Jordan (ankle) is active for Sunday's Week 7 clash against the Raiders, Drew Dougherty of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: The second-year tight end will therefore be active for the first time since Week 2 after finally overcoming his ankle issue. His return will make the Texans' tight end picture even murkier, as O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins remain on hand as well for snaps at the position.

Status in question for Week 7
Jordan (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Las Vegas.
Analysis: Jordan has been tending to an ankle issue since Week 2 prep and hasn't played since that game in Denver, but he may be poised for a return after capping this week with back-to-back full practices. His status will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, and if Jordan is active he'll have to contend for targets with fellow tight ends O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins.

Jordan (ankle) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: Jordan, who last suited up Week 2, was limited Wednesday, but his return to a full session Thursday puts the tight end on track to suit up Sunday against the Raiders. Upon his looming return to action, Jordan looks like a hit-or-miss fantasy option, though, with O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins also in the Texans' TE mix.

Jordan (ankle) took part in practice Wednesday as a limited participant, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: Jordan missed three straight contests leading up to Houston's Week 6 bye, but his return to the field Wednesday in a limited capacity is a step in the right direction. Given his lengthy absence, he'll likely have to log at least one full practice Thursday and/or Friday to have a shot at playing Sunday in Las Vegas. Regardless, when available, Jordan could challenge O.J. Howard for the top spot on the depth chart at tight end.

Jordan (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Analysis: With Jordan out again, look for O.J. Howard and Jordan Akins (a likely practice squad elevation) to lead the Texans' tight end corps against Jacksonville. That's an arrangement that led to Howard catching two of his five targets for 27 yards and Akins catching both of his targets for 33 yards in last weekend's 34-24 loss to the Chargers.

Before the Texans formally decide on his status for the weekend, they'll wait and see if Jordan can fit in any on-field work Friday.

Jordan (ankle) didn't participate in practice Thursday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Jordan has now been a spectator for five straight practices since tweaking his ankle in the Texans' Week 2 loss to the Broncos. Unless he's able to fit in some on-field work at Friday's session, Jordan will likely miss his second game in a row Sunday against the Chargers. In that scenario, Houston could promote Jordan Akins from the practice squad once again to provide another pass-catching option at tight end behind starter Pharaoh Brown.

Jordan's continued absence from practice suggests he hasn't made much progress in his recovery, but he'll still have two more opportunities to get back on the field in some capacity before the Texans decide on his status for this weekend's game against the Chargers.

Per coach Lovie Smith, Jordan injured his ankle in Sunday's 16-9 loss to Denver, Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network reports.
Analysis: Jordan was questionable coming into the game due to an ankle injury, but it's unclear whether this ankle injury is an aggravation of the previous one. The second-year tight end caught two of four targets for three yards while he was in the game. More updates on Jordan's status should surface before the Texans take on the Bears in Week 3.

Analysis: The second-year tight end will therefore be available after getting a pair of limited practices in this past week. Despite a quiet Week 1 in which he saw fellow tight end O.J. Howard steal the spotlight with two touchdown receptions, Jordan's presence is valuable for what shapes up as an all-hands-on-deck game for the Texans offense against a Broncos team out for redemption following a Week 1 upset at the hands of the Seahawks.

Targeted twice in opener
Jordan caught one of two targets for five yards in Sunday's 20-20 tie with Indianapolis.
Analysis: A Houston tight end accounted for two touchdown catches in the game, but it wasn't Jordan. Newcomer O.J. Howard showed immediate chemistry with quarterback Davis Mills, hauling in touchdown strikes of 22 and 16 yards. Jordan developed into a threat over the second half of last season and was touted as a red-zone option entering 2022, but the presence of Howard appears to have dampened Jordan's sleeper appeal.

Pair of grabs in preseason win
Jordan secured both targets for seven yards in the Texans' 24-20 preseason win over the Rams on Friday night.
Analysis: The 2021 fifth-round pick doubled up his catch total and matched his yardage tally from Saturday's preseason opener against the Saints. Jordan displayed some solid upside as a rookie on an inconsistent offense with a 20-178-3 line through nine games, and he's slated to open the 2022 season as the top tight end.

Possible slot fill-in
Jordan can help the Texans fill their void at slot receiver, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: The Texans have a big-framed tight end in Pharaoh Brown, who can handle in-line blocking assignments, so they don't necessarily need Jordan in that role. Houston head coach Lovie Smith said the 2021 fifth-round pick can block "a little bit" -- the tight end acknowledges he has a "long way to go" as a blocker -- but the coach sees Jordan's potential in multi-tight end and fullback packages.

Analysis: Jordan made a couple of nice touchdown grabs, including a snag amongst three defenders. He was also featured in the Texans' two-minute drill.

Jordan caught four of four targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 41-29 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Jordan, who was active but did not play in Week 15, returned to a prominent role. Apparently, a hand injury was the reason for last week's lack of involvement.

Jordan (hand) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Analysis: After logging limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, the tight end -- who caught four of seven targets for 26 yards and a TD in a Week 14 loss to Seattle -- didn't practice Friday, so those inclined to roll the dice on Jordan in deeper fantasy formats will want to verify his status in advance of Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff.

Finds end zone again in Week 14
Jordan caught four of seven targets for 26 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-13 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Jordan capped the opening drive with a five-yard touchdown, his third in six games. His lack of production afterwards was disappointing considering quarterback Davis Mills threw for 331 yards on 49 attempts, and Jordan's career high in yardage remains the 41 he posted in his Week 8 debut. The rookie tight end will look to put his red-zone prowess on display in Week 15 against a Jaguars defense that has allowed five touchdowns to the position this season.

The Texans may simply be mixing things up at the position, with Davis Mills back in as the team's starting QB.

Analysis: With Pharaoh Brown (thigh) inactive, Jordan was active for the first time this season, and the rookie fifth-round draft pick showed promise.
