Texans' Noah Brown Out for Season, Second Major WR Loss for Houston

Despite injuries, Texans' offense remains strong under rookie QB C.J. Stroud as they prepare for divisional round.

Texans wide receiver Noah Brown has been placed on injured reserve due to a shoulder injury sustained in the wild-card win over the Cleveland Browns, ending his season.
This is the second major loss for the Texans' receiving corps, following the season-ending injury to rookie WR Tank Dell in Week 13.
With the absence of Brown and Dell, the Texans will now rely more on wide receivers Robert Woods and John Metchie III, as well as third-year tight end Brevin Jordan.
Despite the losses, the Texans' offense remains strong under the leadership of rookie QB C.J. Stroud, who has passed for 4,108 yards, 23 touchdowns and just five interceptions this season.
The Texans will face either the No. 1 seed Ravens or the No. 3 seed Chiefs in the divisional round, depending on the outcome of the Bills vs. Steelers game.
