  • Hopeful for postseason return

    Houston is hopeful that Watt (pectoral) will be able to return from injured reserve at some point during the postseason, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: When Watt tore his left pectoral muscle in late October and required surgery, the defensive end acknowledged his season was likely over. However, Watt's outlook has since improved considerably, with the Texans reportedly planning to save one of its two IR/designated-to-return spots for the 30-year-old. Rapoport acknowledges that there's even a "slim" possibility Watt could make it back for Week 17, but Houston will keep its focus on getting the three-time Defensive Player of the Year back for…read more

  • Officially placed on IR

    Watt (pectoral) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Deepi Sidhu of the Texans' official site reports.

    Analysis: Watt underwent successful surgery Tuesday to repair his torn left pectoral muscle and will miss the remainder of the season. The three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year should make a full recovery before the 2020 season. Watt finished the 2019 campaign with 24 tackles, four sacks and three pass breakups. He has two years remaining on his contract.

  • Undergoes surgery

    Watt reported his pectoral surgery Tuesday was successful.

    Analysis: In Watt's words, "Everything went smooth with the surgery." The three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year tweeted a photo of himself in a sling while wearing a Houston Astros cap. Watt is expected to make a full recovery before next season, and the Texans are expected to place him on injured reserve.

  • Needs season-ending surgery

    Watt (pectoral) will have season-ending surgery this week, with his recovery time estimated at four months, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Watt suffered a torn pectoral in Sunday's 27-24 win over Oakland, thus finishing his season with 24 tackles (15 solo) and four sacks in eight games. It's a huge loss for a Texans defense that already has been struggling to generate a pass rush, ranking 24th in sack rate (5.2 percent) and 26th in pressure rate (17.9 percent). Watt's injury should open up more snaps for Carlos Watkins and Charles Omenihu.

  • Season over

    Watt confirmed via his personal Twitter account Sunday that his season is over, suggesting that the fears that he tore his pectoral were true.

    Analysis: This is a massive blow to Houston's defense, as Watt's impact rivals that of any other defensive player in the league. Watt will set his sights on rehabbing for the 2020 season.

  • Speculation of serious injury

    There is growing concern that Watt's injury Sunday against the Raiders was a torn pectoral rather than a shoulder injury, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: If these fears prove to be correct, Watt would be out for the remainder of the season. He'll have an MRI soon to determine the extent of the damage. Until then, Watt's IDP owners or those relying on the Houston D/ST unit will have to wait with bated breath.

  • Dings up shoulder

    Watt was forced out of Sunday's game against the Raiders with a shoulder injury, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Watt made three tackles, including one for a loss, before exiting this contest. It's a major loss for the Texans' defensive front, and while he's being evaluated, a rotation of Charles Omenihu and Carlos Watkins figures to fill into Watt's place.

  • Buzzes Brissett in loss

    Watt had three tackles, six quarterback hits and one pass defensed in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Colts in Week 7.

    Analysis: Watt failed to record a sack for the second straight week, but he was in quarterback Jacoby Brissett's face a number of times. The defensive end has four sacks through seven games.

  • Sack streak reaches three games

    Watt had three tackles, one sack, one tackle for a loss, five quarterback hits and one pass defensed in Sunday's 53-32 win over the Falcons in Week 5.

    Analysis: Watt worked around flags for two roughing the passer penalties to record another positively impactful game in Week 5. After a quiet zero-tackle Week 1, Watt has been a contributor in the four games since, including a current three-game sack streak.

  • Makes impact Week 4

    Watt had six tackles, one sack, two quarterback hits, one forced fumble and one fumble recovered in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Panthers in Week 4.

    Analysis: Watt's forced fumble, which he recovered, led to Houston's lone touchdown of the day. It was his second fumble recovery of the season. Watt has recorded sacks in each of the last two games and has three total along with 13 tackles for the season.

  • Records first two sacks

    Watt had five tackles, two sacks, five quarterback hits and two tackles for losses in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Chargers in Week 3.

    Analysis: After getting shut out Week 1, Watt has gradually made his presence felt the last two weeks. Following last week when he had a quarterback hit and recovered a key fumble, Watt was a consistent presence in the backfield against the Chargers, recording his first sacks of the season.

  • Hops on fumble

    Watt made two tackles and recovered a fumble in Sunday's win over the Jaguars.

    Analysis: After failing to record a stat in the season opener, Watt made a crucial play by recovering a fumble on Jacksonville's 11-yard line, leading to a Houston touchdown in the fourth quarter. Watt is still seeking his first sack of the season after registering 16 sacks last year.

  • No stats in season opener

    Watt didn't record a tackle in Monday's 30-28 loss to the Saints.

    Analysis: Watt is healthy again and played 60 defensive snaps, but he finished the game without a tackle or a sack for the first time in his NFL career (105 games). He was held in check by Saints OT Ryan Ramczyk. Watt's too talented of a player to have repeat duds, especially after posting 16 sacks in 2018, so look for him to right the ship Sunday versus a less-talented Jaguars' offensive line.

  • Clear of groin issue

    Watt (groin) is participating at practice Monday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Watt suffered the injury during the Texans' joint practice with the Packers last week and sat out Thursday's preseason opener, but he's ready to go to start this week. The star defensive end is likely to see limited preseason reps regardless as the team looks to keep him fresh for the regular season.

  • Nursing groin injury

    Watt didn't participate in Tuesday's practice due to a groin issue, Mark Berman of Fox 26 News Houston reports.

    Analysis: Though initial reports indicated Watt was held out late in Monday's session for precautionary purposes more than anything, an injury apparently was in fact the cause of his limited workload. The Texans haven't suggested that Watt's groin is anything concerning heading into the regular season, but it wouldn't be surprising if the team elected to take things slowly with the star defensive end, who missed 24 games due to injury between 2016 and 2017.

  • Keeping workload in check

    Watt did not participate in the late stages of Monday's practice but is not nursing an injury, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: Watt's workload in training camp is being limited in the hopes of increasing his chances of playing a full 16 games in 2019, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Watt successfully suited up for all 16 contests in 2018, but struggled with a slew of injuries the previous two years. It's no surprise that the Texans are focusing on keeping Watt available and on the field, given that the 30-year-old veteran remains one of the most disruptive players in the league when healthy.

  • Taken off PUP list

    Watt (knee) has been removed from the PUP list for Thursday's practice, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Watt was never expected to stay on the PUP list for long, having declared himself healthy back in April. He had a minor knee procedure in mid-January and should be fine for the start of the regular season.

  • Should practice soon

    Watt (knee) isn't expected to stay on the PUP list for long, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Watt had a minor knee procedure in mid-January and declared himself healthy in mid-April. It appears the Texans are being cautious, with no real threat to Watt's Week 1 availability. The 30-year-old returned to form in 2018 -- 61 tackles, 16 sacks, seven forced fumbles -- after struggling with a series of injuries the previous two seasons. Watt won't be eligible to practice until he's removed from the PUP list.

  • Placed on PUP list

    Watt (undisclosed) was placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list Sunday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Watt declared himself healthy Apr. 16. It's unclear what the issue might be heading into training camp, as the 30-year-old has been plagued by various injuries in recent seasons. Watt can be taken off the PUP list to begin practicing at any time.

  • Calls himself healthy

    Watt (knee) termed himself healthy as the Texans' offseason program kicks off, Drew Dougherty of the team's official site reports. "I get to work on my craft, work in the weight room," Watt told Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle. "Last two years hoping to get back to play and hoping to play at a decent level."

    Analysis: After a pair of injury-plagued years, Watt bounced back in 2018 to something resembling his peak from earlier this decade. Overall, he posted his fourth-most sacks (16) in a given campaign while accumulating 61 tackles and a career-best seven forced fumbles in 16 games. Watt underwent a minor procedure on his knee following the Texans' wild-card loss to the Colts, but his offseason otherwise has been preparation-based rather than focused on rehab.

  • Undergoes minor knee procedure

    Watt underwent a successful minor knee procedure Thursday, Herbie Teope of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: Watt played through a lingering knee injury for much of the 2018 season, and has elected to have a minor cleanup done to address the issue. The 29-year-old is not expected to be hindered during offseason workouts. Watt totaled 16 sacks on the year, which ranked second in the league, and is a Comeback Player of the Year candidate after having missed 11 games in 2017 due to a broken leg.

  • Makes impact both good, bad

    Watt had two tackles, a quarterback hit and two passes defensed in Saturday's 21-7 wild-card round loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: Watt deflected a couple of Andrew Luck passes, one of which turned into an interception inside Houston's own red zone, but was not the disruptive force we've seen much of the season. His offside penalty on the Colts' opening possession helped extend a drive that turned into a touchdown. The penalty was emblematic of Houston's performance in a game in which they made unforced errors and were utterly dominated. The frustration of the playoff loss aside, this was a nice bounceback season for Watt,…read more

  • Absent from injury report

    Watt (elbow) doesn't sport an injury designation for Saturday's wild-card game against the Colts.

    Analysis: The injuries that limited Watt in practice Wednesday were not believed to be serious, so it shouldn't come as a shock that he will suit up for the wild-card game. The star defensive end has enjoyed a resurgent season after a pair of injury-riddled campaigns, racking up 16.0 sacks and 47 tackles over a full regular season. The Colts have allowed just seven sacks all season -- tied with the Saints for the cleanest sheet in the league -- so Watt and the Texans defense will have their work cut out…read more

  • Limited at Wednesday's session

    Watt (elbow/knee) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Watt's injuries are not believed to be too serious. He's still on track to play in Saturday's wild-card tilt with the Colts, but confirmation likely won't occur until later this week. The Texans appear to be taking every precaution necessary to ensure that Watt is available for Saturday's contest.

    Watt (elbow/knee) said Tuesday that he'll be ready to play in Saturday's wild-card playoff game against the Colts, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Watt was limited in Tuesday's practice with elbow and knee injuries and wore a black sleeve on his right arm. He specifically downplayed the right elbow injury, while the knee is something he's managed since November.

  • Limited Tuesday

    Watt (elbow/knee) was limited in practice Tuesday.

    Analysis: Watt is nursing an elbow injury he suffered in Week 17's win over the Jaguars, in addition to the knee injury he dealt with over the past few weeks. The defensive end has played through the knee injury since November, and the elbow injury is not severe, so it's hard to believe he'll be sidelined Saturday.

  • Picks up arm injury

    Watt injured his right arm during Sunday's 20-3 win over the Jaguars, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Watt sustained an undisclosed injury to his left arm during a first quarter sack-fumble, saying, "My arm just got jacked up in a couple different directions." The star defensive end received X-rays on his left arm Sunday, which did not reveal any significant injury. Watt will undergo more testing in the coming days, but does not appear to be in danger of missing any time as the Texans head into the playoffs.

  • Set for Week 17

    Watt (knee) won't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Watt was once again a limited participant this week since he hasn't fully shaken his lingering knee issue, though it poses no threat to his status for Sunday's game. The 29-year-old has a prime matchup against Blake Bortles and a tattered Jaguars offensive line.

    Analysis: Watt appearing on a Wednesday injury report has been common practice the last month, but he's yet to miss a game. That's what we anticipate Week 17, when the Texans still have a shot at a playoff bye in the AFC with a win over the Jaguars and a Patriots loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: Watt has shown up on the injury report each of the previous three weeks due to the knee, but he's subsequently managed to suit up each time. The only time the knee slowed him was the first of those three games -- Week 13 against the Browns. In the two games since, Watt had a combined eight tackles, three sacks, three tackles for a loss, four quarterback hits, one pass defensed and one forced fumble.

    Watt had six tackles (four solo), two sacks and forced a fumble that led to a touchdown in Saturday's 29-22 win over the Jets. He added two quarterback hits and two tackles for loss.

    Analysis: Watt managed elite production once again while being double-teamed all day. This was the fourth time he's recorded multiple sacks in a game, and since Week 3, there's been just two games in which he's failed to sack the quarterback.

    Watt (knee) does not have an injury designation heading into Saturday's tilt against the Jets.

    Analysis: Watt was limited in practice Tuesday and Wednesday before returning to full participation Thursday, so he'll be good to go Saturday at MetLife Stadium barring any pregame setbacks. The star defensive end will look to add to his season tally of 12.5 sacks.

  • Fine for Sunday

    Watt (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Colts, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: The knee injury might explain why Watt was limited to one tackle and no sacks in last week's 29-13 win over the Browns, but he was also listed with the same issue ahead of the Week 13 victory over the Titans and erupted for 1.5 sacks and nine tackles. His knee is probably less of a concern this week than the tricky matchup against an excellent offensive line. Of course, Watt did have two sacks and two forced fumbles in the first meeting between these teams Sept. 30.

    Analysis: Watt was able to play through his lingering knee injury during Sunday's win over the Browns, which bodes well for his Week 14 availability. The star defensive end has yet to miss a game this season, but his participation in practice Thursday and Friday will warrant monitoring.

  • Suiting up Sunday

    Watt (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Analysis: Watt is probably running at less than full health while managing the knee injury, but even a compromised version of the defensive end can still be a game-wrecking force. He proved as much in the Texans' Week 12 win over the Titans, when he recorded nine tackles and 1.5 sacks along with a forced fumble in the 34-17 triumph.

    Watt (knee), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, is likely to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The knee issue has been bothering Watt for nearly two weeks, but it doesn't appear to be anything that will prevent him from suiting up on gamedays or dramatically hinder his effectiveness. In fact, Watt turned in one of his best outings of the season in Monday's 34-17 win over the Texans, registering nine tackles, 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble.

  • Questionable for Week 13

    Watt (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Analysis: After playing through the knee injury in a Monday night win over the Titans in Week 12, Watt had less time than usual to gear up for this week's game. As a result, his practice reps were limited Wednesday through Friday while he continued to manage the injury, but the expectation is that Watt will be ready to go once gameday arrives. Watt didn't appear to have any limitations against Tennessee, as he racked up a season-high nine tackles to go with 1.5 sacks and a forced forced fumble.

  • Knee no problem

    Watt, who spent multiple days on the injury report with a knee injury, had nine tackles, 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble in Monday's 34-17 win over the Titans.

    Analysis: Watt was removed from the injury report after a third day of limited participation, but it's clear Houston was managing his practice workload so that he could disrupt the Titans offense during a real game. He has sacks in four straight games and in eight of the last nine.
