Stover did not catch either of his two targets in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets in Week 9. Houston was without its top two wideouts for the game, which presented an opportunity for a lesser-known receiver, such as Stover, to produce. However, that didn't materialize, as quarterback C.J. Stroud (eight sacks, 11 hits) was on the run most of the night, which impacted the passing attack. Stover has seven catches on 11 targets for 85 yards through nine games.

Stover caught two of three targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over Indianapolis in Week 8. The targets were a season high for Stover, who's seen an uptick in playing time in the wake of Nico Collins' hamstring injury that landed him on injured reserve. Collins could have company on the sidelines this coming Thursday against the Jets, as Stefon Diggs sustained what appears to be a serious knee injury Sunday, which is likely to leave Houston without its top two receivers for Week 9. That sets up a scenario where Stover could get additional opportunities, although it's likely the bulk of extra available targets would accrue to Dalton Schultz.

Stover caught his lone target for 15 yards in Sunday's 24-22 loss to Green Bay. The passing attack struggled in this game, as quarterback C.J. Stroud was held to 86 yards while completing just 10 of 21 throws. However, Stover still saw his usual one target for the week. The rookie tight end has five catches on six targets for 66 yards through seven contests. Stover is firmly behind Dalton Schultz on the depth chart but has become more prominent, averaging 26 snaps over five weeks since Brevin Jordan suffered a season-ending knee injury.

Stover caught his lone target for 27 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Jaguars in Week 4. Stover's 27-yard catch moved the Texans to midfield on a drive that eventually resulted in the team's first touchdown. Brevin Jordan's season-ending knee injury has elevated Stover to the No. 2 tight end behind veteran Dalton Schultz. The rookie tight end has two catches on two targets for 45 yards.

Stover made the Texans' initial 53-man roster Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Stover's healthy status likely played a role in his winning a roster spot, as the Texans waived/injured fellow tight end Teagan Quitoriano (calf) and released fullback/tight end Andrew Beck, who was dogged by a calf injury during the preseason. Stover currently lines up as the third tight end behind Dalton Schultz and Brevin Jordan.
