Stewart (quadriceps) was moved to the reserve/PUP list by the Texans on Sunday.
Stewart suffered a quadriceps injury in early November, ending the 2025 season on injured reserve after undergoing surgery. The safety remained sidelined throughout training camp and the preseason, and he will now be forced to miss at least four contests to open the regular season. In his absence, offseason addition Reed Blankenship will be the unquestioned No. 1 option at strong safety for Houston.
