Texans' Dalton Schultz: Season-best 66 yards
Dalton Schultz recorded three receptions on four targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 26-23 loss to the Lions.Schultz earned fewer than five targets for only the second time since Week 3, which came as a surprise given the absence of Nico Collins (hamstring) and Stefon Diggs (knee). However, Schultz still managed his highest yardage total of the season, primarily thanks to a 32-yard reception early in the third quarter. Though it was a positive performance, Schultz has still managed to top 35 yards in only two games for the campaign.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: Could see increased targets
Dalton Schultz could see a higher-than-usual number of targets in Sunday night's game against the Lions with Houston's top two wideouts questionable for Week 10.Schultz had been a forgotten component in the passing offense to start the season, but injuries have hit the wideout group since Week 1. Stefon Diggs (knee) is done for the season, Nico Collins (IR, hamstring) was designated to return from IR but logged one limited practice Friday and is questionable, and Tank Dell (back) popped up on Friday's injury report and is questionable. Schultz is averaging five targets per game for the season and has seen at least six throws come his way in four of the last five weeks, coinciding with the stretch of time that injuries began impacting the wide receivers. After catching five touchdowns during his first season in Houston, Schultz is still looking for his first score in 2024.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: Modest output in Week 9 loss
Dalton Schultz secured three of six targets for 21 yards in the Houston Texans' 21-13 loss to the Jets on Thursday night.Despite the absence of both Stefon Diggs (IR, knee) and Nico Collins (IR, hamstring), Schultz continued to operate in a modest role that left him with eighth sub-35-yard tally of the season. The veteran tight end has topped out at four receptions as far as a single-game high during the 2024 campaign, and with Collins expected to return for a Week 10 home clash against the Lions on Sunday, Nov. 10, Schultz is likely to remain in a largely fantasy-irrelevant role.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: Sees uptick in production Sunday
Dalton Schultz secured four of six targets for 52 yards in the Houston Texans' 23-20 win over the Colts on Sunday.Schultz tied for second on the team in receptions and targets while also serving as the runner-up in receiving yards. The veteran tight end's receiving yardage total was a season high as well, and he's now recorded a trio of four-catch tallies in his last four games. Schultz should continue seeing a slightly elevated role in a Week 9 road matchup against the Jets on Thursday night, especially if Stefon Diggs (knee) joins Nico Collins (IR-hamstring) in street clothes.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: One catch in Week 7 loss
Dalton Schultz caught one of two targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Packers.Schultz's 28-yard catch in the first quarter was enough for him to finish as Houston's leading receiver, as C.J. Stroud threw for only 86 yards in arguably the worst performance of the second-year quarterback's career. Wide receiver Nico Collins (hamstring) will miss a third consecutive game in Week 8 against the Colts, so Schultz is poised to see decent target volume if Stroud gets back on track, as Schultz had 14 targets over Houston's previous two games coming into Sunday's loss.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: Eight targets in win
Dalton Schultz caught four of eight targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 41-21 win over the Patriots.Schultz was given a season-high eight targets -- second most on the team -- as the Houston offense was without Nico Collins (hamstring), who is on injured reserve for at least another three games. Expect Schultz to get more looks while Collins remains sidelined, which could eventually translate into touchdowns. The tight end has yet to score in 2024.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: Season-high six targets in win
Dalton Schultz caught four of six targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Bills in Week 5.For the second straight week, Schultz received a bump in targets with one of Houston's top three wideouts injured. After Nico Collins (hamstring) was removed from the game and Buffalo's defense made life difficult for quarterback C.J. Stroud in the second half, Schultz became a security blanket for the second-year quarterback. All six of the tight end's targets came during the third and fourth quarters, with four of them coming on third downs. Schultz received five looks last week when Tank Dell was inactive and has 16 targets over the last three games, compared to six over the first two games of the season.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: Five targets in win
Dalton Schultz caught three of five targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over Jacksonville.Schultz again dealt with an ankle injury during the practice week, but it hasn't prevented him from seeing significant action. In Week 3, he logged 96 percent of the offensive snaps, and the veteran tight end was on the field for 87 percent of plays Sunday. Schultz moved up to third on the target list with Tank Dell (chest) inactive for the game.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: Puts in full practice
Dalton Schultz (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.Schultz opened Week 4 prep Wednesday as a limited practice participant, but his ability to take every rep in Thursday's session clears up any lingering doubt about his availability for this Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Expect the tight end to once again take on ample playing time after he logged 96 percent of Houston's snaps on offense in the Week 3 loss to Minnesota. Schultz drew five targets against the Vikings, and he could see his role in the passing attack expand if either or both of Nico Collins (hamstring) and Tank Dell (chest) aren't cleared to play versus the Jaguars.

Texans' Dalton Schultz: Limited practice Wednesday
Dalton Schultz (ankle) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.Schultz continues to manage an ankle issue, but the injury didn't stop him from logging a 96 percent snap share in the Houston Texans' Week 3 loss to the Vikings. Given that the Texans haven't indicated that Schultz suffered a setback coming out of Sunday's contest, chances are that his listed limitations Wednesday were simply a matter of rep management.
