Texans' Cade Stover: Sent to injured reserve
The Houston Texans placed Cade Stover on injured reserve Tuesday after he suffered a broken collarbone in Saturday's 32-12 wild-card win over the Chargers, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.The rookie tight end played 36 offensive snaps -- his second-most of the season -- and recorded four catches for 28 yards on four targets in Saturday's win, but he appears to have suffered the injury at some point along the way. Primarily used as a blocker during his rookie campaign, Stover recorded 15 receptions for 133 yards and one touchdown during the regular season. Teagan Quitoriano (calf) was recently designated for return from IR and could be activated ahead of Saturday's divisional-round matchup with the Chiefs. For the time being, however, the Texans are left with starter Dalton Schultz and Irv Smith as the lone healthy tight ends on the roster.

Texans' Cade Stover: Back to full health
Cade Stover did not catch his lone target in Sunday's 23-14 win over Tennessee in Week 18.Stover had missed Weeks 15 and 16 while recovering from an appendectomy but has since returned. He played a less-than-normal 19 snaps in his first game back and was at his usual level (36 snaps) for the regular-season finale. The rookie tight end gained a lot of experience in 2024 after Brevin Jordan (knee) sustained a season-ending ACL injury in Week 2. When healthy, Stover played 42.1 percent of the offensive snaps. That exposure, however, didn't lead to much production. Stover finished with 15 catches, 22 targets, 133 yards and one touchdown over 15 games played. There isn't expected to be much change at the position group next season; both Jordan and starting tight end Dalton Schultz are under contract for 2025.

Texans' Cade Stover: Estimated as limited Sunday
Cade Stover (appendix) was listed as a limited practice participant on Sunday's estimated report, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.Stover underwent an emergency appendectomy Dec. 14, which has forced him to be sidelined for the Houston Texans' last two games. Houston didn't practice Sunday, so his practice participation over the next two days will provide clarity on his status heading into Wednesday's game against the Ravens. Irv Smith was signed to the Texans' active roster this past Friday, and he would serve as the No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz if Stover isn't able to play on Christmas Day.

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.
