Autry was reinstated from the Reserve/Suspended list Monday. Autry will be eligible to play again after being suspended for the first six games of the season after violating the NFL's policy against performance-enhancing drugs. The Texans were granted a one-game roster exemption for the 34-year-old, who will likely contribute as a rotational pass rusher.

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.

Autry agreed to a two-year, $20 million contract with the Texans on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Autry started his career with the Raiders before spending three seasons with the Colts followed by three with the Titans. He continues his journey across the AFC South in Houston, where he projects to compete for edge reps opposite Will Anderson. The 33-year-old tallied a career-high 11.5 sacks in Tennessee during the 2023 campaign.

Autry recorded 50 tackles (30 solo), 11.5 sacks, four passes defensed and two forced fumbles across 17 games with the Titans in 2023. Autry has been a key pass rusher for the Titans since joining the team in 2021. He reached new heights in 2023, however, logging career-high marks in tackles, sacks and snaps played. Autry is set to hit free agency and could be in for one final payday as he enters his age-34 season in 2024.

Autry recorded four tackles (four solo) including two sacks in Sunday's 19-16 overtime loss versus the Texans. Sunday's performance pushed Autry's season sack total up to 11.0, a career high for the 33-year-old defensive end. The Seahawks have actually been relatively pass-happy so far this season, so Autry could get another healthy dose of pass-rushing opportunities in Week 16.
