Texans' Azeez Al-Shaair: Ejected after illegal hit
Al-Shaair was ejected from Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jaguars with 4:20 remaining in the second quarter for an illegal hit on quarterback Trevor Lawrence. He was credited with five tackles across 19 snaps before his disqualification.
The play in question occurred when Lawrence slid at the end of a six-yard scramble, with Al-Shaair arriving late and driving his shoulder into Lawrence's head. A fight between the two teams ensued after Al-Shaair's late hit, which resulted in Lawrence sustaining a concussion. Al-Shaair took to social media Monday to apologize to Lawrence while noting there was no ill intent to harm him, but the linebacker could still be subject to discipline from the league in the form of a fine and/or suspension.

Texans' Will Anderson: Little impact in win
Anderson did not record a tackle and had one quarterback hit in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jaguars in Week 13.
Anderson dealt with an ankle injury during the practice week, which may have contributed to his zero-tackle performance. He played 63 percent of the defensive snaps, which is slightly below his season average when available for a full game (69 percent).

Texans' Derek Stingley: Makes impactful pick in win
Stingley recorded two tackles and three passes defensed, including an interception, in Sunday's 23-20 win over Jacksonville in Week 13.
Stingley returned his pick 31 yards to give Houston a short field at Jacksonville's 44-yard line. That led to the second of three Ka'imi Fairbairn field goals, giving Houston a 6-0 lead. It was the second interception in three games for Stingley, who has three for the season. All three have led to points (one TD, two FG).

Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Back on form
Fairbairn converted three of three field-goal attempts and two of two extra-point kicks in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jaguars in Week 13.
One week after missing a field goal that cost the Texans, Fairbairn was back to his normal self. He twice bailed out the offense, which scored one touchdown in three red-zone trips. Fairbairn also added another one from long distance, a 53-yarder early in the second quarter to open the game's scoring. He ranks second in the league among kickers with 122 points behind the Steelers' Chris Boswell (128).

Texans' Jared Wayne: Makes NFL debut
Wayne was not targeted over 16 snaps in Sunday's 23-20 win over Jacksonville in Week 13.
Wayne, who made his NFL debut, was elevated from the practice squad to occupy a spot at the back end of the depth chart with Xavier Hutchinson (shoulder) inactive. His 16 snaps were the fewest among the wideouts.

Texans' Robert Woods: One target in win
Woods did not catch his lone target in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jaguars in Week 13. He returned two punts for 13 yards.
Woods, who was on the field for 21 offensive snaps, continued to fill a depth role and has just two targets since Nico Collins returned from IR. As a returner, Woods leads the team with a combined 248 yards on punts (four returns) and kickoffs (14).

Texans' Irv Smith: Makes Texans debut
Smith was not targeted over 17 snaps in Sunday's 23-20 win over Jacksonville in Week 13.
Smith was elevated from the practice squad to take over for the injured Teagan Quitoriano (knee) as the third tight end. Smith experienced a modest level of success in three seasons with the Vikings and one with the Bengals, but he'll remain firmly entrenched behind Dalton Schultz and Cade Stover.

Texans' Cade Stover: Targeted once in win
Stover caught his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jaguars in Week 13.
Stover (37 snaps) was on the field nearly as much as Dalton Schultz (43), but the starter continued to dominate targets among Houston's tight ends. Injuries to Brevin Jordan (knee), Dalton Keene (knee) and Teagan Quitoriano (knee) have presented an opportunity for Stover, which should set the rookie up nicely for 2025, but Schultz is also signed for another two seasons.

Texans' John Metchie: Two grabs in win
Metchie caught both of his targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over Jacksonville in Week 13.
Metchie operated as the third wideout but had little impact, although one of his targets did come in the red zone. Xavier Hutchinson (shoulder) was inactive, and his workload was distributed among Metchie (31 snaps), Robert Woods (21) and Jared Wayne (16). The passing game played out as it has the last few weeks, with Nico Collins (11 targets), Dalton Schultz (seven) and Tank Dell (four) being the main components. Metchie had a recent bump in activity, but that appears to have dimmed since Collins returned from a stint on the IR due to a hamstring injury.

Texans' Dameon Pierce: One touch in win
Pierce caught his lone target for one yard in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jaguars in Week 13. He did not get a carry or return a kickoff.
Joe Mixon (47 snaps, 20 carries, six targets Sunday) owns the Texans' backfield, leaving nothing but crumbs for Pierce (seven snaps) and Dare Ogunbowale (nine). Pierce has just four carries and one target in his last five appearances.

Texans' Eric Murray: Sustains hand injury
Murray suffered a hand injury in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jaguars.
Murray picked up a hand injury in the second half versus Jacksonville, finishing his day with eight total tackles (three solo). The safety will have the advantage of the team's upcoming bye week in order to be ready to go for Houston's matchup with the Dolphins on Dec. 15.

Texans' Jimmie Ward: Gets concussion check
Ward was checked for a concussion during Sunday's 23-20 win at Jacksonville.
It's unclear if Ward has entered the protocol for head injuries, but if he has, he'll need to pass through its five phases and gain clearance from an independent neurologist in order to suit up again. He had six tackles, including a tackle for loss, before departing in the second half.

Texans' Tank Dell: Limited to one catch Sunday
Dell brought in one of four targets for 23 yards and returned one punt for 14 yards in the Texans' 23-20 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Dell recorded his sole catch early in the fourth quarter, a reflection of how unusually quiet the speedy second-year wideout's afternoon was. Dell's target total also tied a season low, and his yardage was his fewest since Week 8. The 2023 third-round pick will now have a Week 14 bye to rest up before resuming a quest to snap what is now a five-game touchdown drought at the expense of the Dolphins in a Week 15 home matchup Sunday, Dec. 15.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: Finds end zone in Week 13 win
Schultz secured five of seven targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' 23-20 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Despite missing time in the second half to be evaluated for a shoulder injury, Schultz was able to record his first touchdown since January's wild-card win over the Browns, finding the end zone on a 22-yard grab early in the fourth quarter. The veteran tight end finished second in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon for the Texans, and his catch total matched a season high as well. Schultz now has a pair of five-reception totals in the last three games heading into a Week 14 bye.

Texans' Joe Mixon: Compiles 119 total yards in win
Mixon rushed 20 times for 101 yards and a touchdown and brought in four of six targets for 18 yards in the Texans' 23-20 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Mixon managed to get over the 100-yard mark on the ground for the seventh time this season on his final carry of the day coming out of the two-minute warning, an eight-yard run that fittingly sealed the hard-fought win for Houston. The veteran back managed his 11th rushing touchdown of the campaign on a seven-yard run just before the halfway point of the third quarter, and he tied his second-highest reception total of the season as well. Mixon will head into a Week 14 bye just 113 rushing yards short of his fifth career 1,000-yard campaign, a milestone he'll look to hit at the expense of the Dolphins in a Week 15 home matchup on Sunday, Dec. 15.
