Texans' Cade Stover: Contributes three catches in win
Cade Stover caught all three of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 40-20 win over Arizona in Week 15.The Houston Texans often rolled with multiple tight ends, and Stover had a season-high 41 snaps alongside starter Dalton Shultz (53 snaps). The position group combined for 12 targets, a team high for the day and a season high. Stover also had one rushing attempt -- another short-yardage situation in the red zone -- but the play was negated by a penalty.

Texans' Cade Stover: Used again as runner
Cade Stover was not targeted in Sunday's 20-10 win over Kansas City in Week 14.Stover's did get a carry on a 4th-and-1 in the red zone, but the play was wiped out by an offside penalty. Houston settled for a field goal instead. It was the fourth time in the last two games that the Houston Texans used Stover as a runner, but unless he gets used at the goal line, that usage won't provide him with any fantasy appeal.

Texans' Cade Stover: Adds new wrinkle in win
Cade Stover caught both of his targets for 16 yards and had four carries for three yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Colts in Week 13.In addition to Stover's day job as the backup tight end to Dalton Schultz, the Houston Texans gave him a side hustle as a short-yardage specialist in the running attack. All four of his carries were on 3rd- or 4th-and-one situations, including three inside the red zone. The first two worked, but Indianapolis stopped Stover on successive tries in the fourth quarter. It was a curious decision by the coaching staff to run Stover on 4th-and-one at the Colts' 17-yard line after it didn't work on third down. At the time, Houston was leading, 20-16, and the turnover on downs left the Texans vulnerable to a loss had Indianapolis been able to drive for a touchdown. That Houston added this package for Stover and used it in the red zone slightly enhances the backup tight end's value heading into a Week 14 trip to Kansas City.

Texans' Cade Stover: Targeted twice in win
Cade Stover was unable to bring in either of his two targets in Thursday's 23-16 win over the Bills in Week 12.Stover played his second game since returning from a broken foot suffered in the season opener. He was on the field for 20 snaps, which represents an increase from Week 11. He's not a big piece of the offense but is a willing blocker as the No. 2 behind Dalton Schultz.

Texans' Cade Stover: Untargeted in win
Cade Stover played 14 snaps and was not targeted in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Titans in Week 11.He was activated off injured reserve and played for the first time since Week 1. Injuries in the tight end room led to Stover opening the season as the clear backup to starter Dalton Schultz, but a broken foot shut him down until Sunday. With Harrison Bryant (neck/shoulder) landing on IR last week, Stover should resume his role as the top backup.

Through 16 regular-season games as a pro, Stover, a 2024 fourth-round pick, has compiled a 19-155-1 line on 26 targets.

Texans' Cade Stover: Questionable for Sunday
Cade Stover (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans.Stover upgraded to a full practice participant Friday after logging limited sessions both Wednesday and Thursday, meaning he is trending up for Sunday's game. The tight end was designated to return from injured reserve this week, and with fellow tight end Harrison Bryant (neck/shoulder) unable to practice Friday and ruled out this week, Stover's chances of suiting up for Sunday seem solid.
