Boutte caught three of four targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.
With Nico Collins back from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury, he dominated targets and left the remainder of the Houston pass catchers fighting for leftovers. Boutte ran 24 routes on C.J. Stroud's 35 dropbacks, but the summer trade pickup has yet to really make an impact with the Texans, recording nine catches for 115 yards on 13 targets after four games.
