Texans' Cade Stover: DNP for Tuesday's walkthrough
Cade Stover (appendix) did not participate in Tuesday's walkthrough.Stover underwent an emergency appendectomy Saturday. That forced him to miss Sunday's win against the Dolphins, and the procedure may force the rookie tight end to be sidelined for multiple weeks. Irv Smith could be elevated from the Houston Texans' practice squad to the active roster for Saturday's game against the Chiefs and serve as the No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz if Stover is ruled out.

Texans' Cade Stover: Out after emergency appendectomy
Houston downgraded Cade Stover from questionable to out for Sunday's game against Miami after he required an emergency appendectomy Saturday.While the Houston Texans relay that Stover is doing well and expected to make a full recovery, he'll likely be in store for a multi-game absence and could be a candidate for injured reserve. With Stover sidelined for at least Sunday's contest, the Texans will turn to Irv Smith to serve as the backup behind starting tight end Dalton Schultz.

Texans' Cade Stover: Late addition to injury report
Cade Stover is dealing with an illness and is questionable to play against the Dolphins on Sunday.Stover appears to have been afflicted with the illness during the weekend, as he didn't have an injury designation following the Houston Texans' final practice Friday. The rookie tight end logged a season-high 57 percent of Houston's offensive snaps Week 13 against Jacksonville prior to Houston's bye and caught his first career touchdown pass one week prior. If Stover can't play Sunday, there'd likely be more opportunities available for Irv Smith, who was elevated from the team's practice squad Saturday.

Texans' Cade Stover: Targeted once in win
Cade Stover caught his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jaguars in Week 13.Stover (37 snaps) was on the field nearly as much as Dalton Schultz (43), but the starter continued to dominate targets among Houston's tight ends. Injuries to Brevin Jordan (knee), Dalton Keene (knee) and Teagan Quitoriano (knee) have presented an opportunity for Stover, which should set the rookie up nicely for 2025, but Schultz is also signed for another two seasons.

Texans' Cade Stover: Two targets in loss
Cade 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.

Texans' Cade Stover: Season-high targets in win
Cade 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.
