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.

Texans' Cade Stover: Shines in preseason win
Cade Stover caught three of four targets for 32 yards in Friday's 20-12 preseason win over Pittsburgh.Stover was used early on and was a safety valve on one of C.J. Stroud's two completions. The tight end also bailed out Davis Mills later in the first half. Stover has caught five of seven targets for 58 yards through two preseason games. The Houston Texans have injuries at tight end, as both Brevin Jordan (undisclosed) and Teagan Quitoriano (calf) did not suit up for the contest.
