Coutee caught one of three targets for 11 yards and had one carry for 10 yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Panthers in Week 4.
Coutee played a season-high 40 snaps after moving up the depth chart to replace the injured Kenny Stills (hamstring) in the second quarter. Stills' status for Week 5 against Atlanta is unclear, pending a more thorough examination by the Texans' medical staff. Coutee is quite familiar with the offense and can fill in but does not possess Stills' high-end speed.
