Texans WR Jaylin Noel (hamstring/finger) did not practice on Sunday.

16 August 2026

Noel has been dealing with the pinky finger issue since late July, but the hamstring is a recent injury. The second-year wide receiver would ideally be competing for the WR3 role right now, and losing reps could slow him down. He is a risky dart throw, but he flashed talent at times in his rookie season.
