Head coach DeMeco Ryans told reporters Monday that Autry is expected to be back from his six-game suspension this week, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Autry inked a two-year, $20 million deal with the Texans this past offseason after posting 11.5 sacks with the Titans in 2023. After serving his six-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy against performance-enhancing drugs, the first-year Texan is expected to make his 2024 debut against the Packers in Week 7. Expect Autry to serve as a rotational edge rusher behind both Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson.
