Texans' Kayshon Boutte: Two catches in Week 3 loss vs. Indy
Boutte hauled in both of his targets for 21 yards during the Texans' 19-17 loss to the Colts on Sunday.
For a second consecutive week, Boutte operated in an elevated role on offense due to the absence of Nico Collins (hamstring). Boutte's 37 offensive snaps actually led all Texans wide receivers, but he didn't see a target from C.J. Stroud until late in the fourth quarter, when the duo connected on back-to-back passes of 15 and six yards. Those two catches set the Texans up in the red zone and led to a Woody Marks one-yard rushing touchdown at the 1:50 mark. Per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston on Monday, head coach DeMeco Ryans expressed optimism that Collins would be back for Week 4 against the Cowboys. Collins' practice participation in the coming days will shed light on what Boutte's workload may look like against Dallas this Sunday.

Texans' Kayshon Boutte: Remaining in No. 2 role Sunday
Boutte is expected to remain in the No. 2 receiver role for Sunday's Week 3 matchup against the Colts due to Nico Collins (hamstring) being ruled inactive for the contest.
While filling the same role in the Week 2 loss to the Bengals, Boutte logged a modest five targets on 47 routes run, emerging from the contest with a 3-37-0 line. The veteran pass catcher will draw a potentially more favorable matchup Sunday as the Texans aim for their first win of the season, as the Colts have surrendered an elevated 72.7 percent catch rate and 17.9 yards per reception to wide receivers.

Texans' Kayshon Boutte: Tallies three catches in Week 2 loss
Boutte caught three of five targets for 37 yards during the Texans' 20-6 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.
Both Boutte and Xavier Hutchinson were lined up for larger roles offensively after Nico Collins (hamstring) was ruled out prior to Sunday's game. Boutte and Hutchinson ended with the same number of catches and receiving yards, but it was tight end Dalton Schultz who led all Texans pass catchers with a 12-140-0 line on 14 targets. Collins is expected to miss the Texans' Week 3 tilt against the Colts, so Boutte should have at least one more week serving in an elevated role, though he doesn't appear to be in line for the kind of production bump that Schultz had in Week 2.

Texans' Kayshon Boutte: Set for larger role
Boutte is in line for a larger role with Nico Collins (hamstring) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Aaron Wilson of SportsTalk790AM reports.
Boutte was targeted on just two of 25 routes in a Week 1 loss to Buffalo, catching one pass for 21 yards. His 60 percent route share was fourth on the team, behind Collins (86 percent), TE Dalton Schultz (71 percent) and WR Xavier Hutchinson (69 percent). With Collins out of the equation, Hutchinson and Boutte are the safest bets to take WR snaps, with Jaylin Noel and Jared Wayne also having roles. The Texans also may lean into multi-TE formations after using 11 personnel on 58 percent of snaps in their season opener.

Texans' Kayshon Boutte: Minimal production in Week 1
Boutte caught one of two targets for 21 yards in the Texans' 36-31 loss to the Bills on Sunday.
Acquired from the Patriots toward the end of training camp, Boutte is still in the process of building rapport with C.J. Stroud while learning the playbook. Boutte played behind both Nico Collins and Xavier Hutchinson against Buffalo, seeing just under 46 percent of the offensive snaps. Boutte's role could grow as the season goes along, but Hutchinson has long been a favorite of the coaching staff, and second-year WR Jaylin Noel also is in the mix for increased reps.

Texans' Kayshon Boutte: Building rapport with Stroud
Boutte said Wednesday that he's been developing chemistry with QB C.J. Stroud since his trade from the Patriots to the Texans on Aug. 24, Cole Thompson of USA Today reports.
Boutte ended up being the odd man out last month in a New England receiving corps that added A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs in the offseason. Prior to their respective arrivals, Boutte was a regular in the Patriots' passing game the last two seasons, combining for a 76-1,140-9 line on 114 targets in 29 regular-season contests during that span. He joined Houston in the wake of Jayden Higgins' torn ACL, so Boutte will be in the mix for looks from Stroud behind Nico Collins and alongside Xavier Hutchinson, Jaylin Noel (hamstring) and Jared Wayne to begin the campaign.
