Akins caught two of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's 17-9 loss to Miami.
Akins, who has multiple catches in six of the last seven games, also had a fumble late in the fourth quarter that stymied the Texans' comeback attempt. There could be change coming in the second half after Houston's bye in Week 10, as the 29-year-old tight end is in the final year of his contract and is not expected back in 2022. The Texans are developing rookie tight end Brevin Jordan to take on the receiving role at the position.
