Texans' Braxton Berrios: Green light for Week 9
Berrios (chest) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Berrios has been given the all-clear to play Week 9 after logging a full practice Friday. He played a meaningful role on offense during the Texans' Week 8 win over the 49ers and finished with five catches on as many targets for 38 yards. However, Berrios will likely be limited to a role on special teams for Week 9 due to the returns of Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring).

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Limited participant Thursday
Berrios (chest) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice.
That's two consecutive limited practices for Berrios leading up to Week 9 against Denver. He was a significant performer as a fill-in last week during a win over the 49ers, catching five of five targets for 38 yards, but a repeat effort appears unlikely. Even if healthy and ready to go Sunday, Berrios' usage as a receiver is expected to be curtailed. That's because injured wideouts Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring), both of whom practiced fully Thursday, look like they'll be available.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Tending to chest issue
Berrios (chest) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
It's not obvious when Berrios hurt his chest, but that he was able to practice in some capacity Wednesday signals it's not too serious. He'll get two more chances to practice in full before Houston publishes its last practice report of the week Friday.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Increases production
Berrios secured all five of his targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 26-15 win over the 49ers.
Berrios was active for the second straight week as the Texans navigate injuries at receiver to Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring). His production against San Francisco was a vast improvement over the previous week, when Berrios caught one of three targets for minus-1 yard in a loss to the Seahawks. Another difference from Week 7 to 8 is that Berrios was replaced by Jaylin Noel as the team's punt returner. Berrios has extensive history as a returner and could eventually reclaim that role when Collins and Kirk are ready to go.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Makes season debut
Berrios caught one of three targets for minus-one yard and returned three punts for 25 yards in Monday's 27-19 loss to Seattle in Week 7.
Berrios joined the active roster for the first time this season, taking the roster spot of Christian Kirk (hamstring), but it was a tough outing for Berrios against a raucous Seattle defense. He also took over punt-return duties from rookie Jaylin Noel, but that got off to a poor start. Berrios misjudged a punt which he thought would be a touchback, resulting in the Texans' first possession beginning at their own 4-yard line. Berrios could get a chance at redemption in Week 8, as top receiver Nico Collins (concussion) exited Monday's game, which could leave the team short on wideouts against San Francisco.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Inactive Sunday
Berrios (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans.
With Berrios a healthy scratch once again Sunday, Nico Collins, Christian Kirk, Xavier Hutchinson, Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel will handle Houston's Week 4 WR duties. Even when he's active on game days, Berrios is most likely to make his impact as a returner.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Inactive Sunday
Berrios (coach's decision) isn't suiting up Sunday against Jacksonville.
Berrios missed the first two weeks of the campaign due to a hamstring issue but wasn't given an injury designation heading into this weekend. With that in mind, his inactive status Sunday may be more tied to his depth role in the passing game and his lack of an opportunity to build chemistry within the offense thus far. It's also notable that fellow wideout Christian Kirk is active Week 3 after missing Houston's first two games with a hamstring injury of his own.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Cleared to play
Berrios (hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Berrios is set to make his season debut after missing the first two games with a hamstring issue. He's unlikely to see much action on offense, but Berrios could handle some kickoff and punt returns.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Starts week limited
Berrios (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
Berrios has missed both of the Texans' first two games of the season but is expected to return for Sunday's contest against the Jaguars. It remains to be seen what his role will be with the team, but he'll provide depth at wide receiver and as a return man.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Expected to play Week 3
Head coach DeMeco Ryans said Tuesday that he expects Berrios (hamstring) to be available for the Texans' Week 3 AFC South clash against the Jaguars on Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Berrios missed the first two games of the regular season due to a hamstring injury, but he is trending toward making his 2025 regular-season debut Sunday. The 2018 sixth-rounder signed a one-year contract with the Texans in March after spending the last two seasons with the Dolphins. When he does take the field, Berrios projects to serve in a rotational role on kickoff and punt returns, and as a depth piece at wide receiver.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Missing Week 2
Berrios (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Monday night's contest against the Buccaneers.
Berrios' absence in Week 2 comes as no surprise, as the first-year Texan was unable to practice all week after missing the team's Week 1 loss to the Rams due to a hamstring injury. With Berrios set to miss his second consecutive game Monday night, Jaylin Noel will likely serve as Houston's top punt returner.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: DNP again Friday
Berrios (hamstring) remained sidelined at Friday's practice.
Berrios has yet to practice this season and looks poised to miss his second straight game to open the 2025 campaign. With Christian Kirk (hamstring) also hobbled, the Texans once again may use a committee approach at wide receiver behind Nico Collins this coming Monday night versus Tampa Bay.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Not practicing Thursday
Berrios (hamstring) is not participating in Thursday's practice, Sam Warren of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Berrios' hamstring injury prevented him from suiting up Week 1 against the Rams, and he remains absent from practice heading into Monday's game against the Buccaneers. With Christian Kirk (hamstring) also still not practicing Thursday, the Texans' wide receiver corps could again be notably depleted Week 2.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Out for Week 1
Berrios (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams.
According to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, there's optimism from the team Berrios will be able to return relatively soon. With both Berrios and Christian Kirk (hamstring) out for Week 1, the Texans are expected to lean on Nico Collins and rookies Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel against the Rams. Veteran Justin Watson is also in line for an increased offensive role.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Second straight DNP on Thursday
Berrios (hamstring) isn't practicing Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Berrios and Christian Kirk have both sat out consecutive practices due to hamstring injuries, putting their availability in jeopardy for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Rams. Rookies Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel could be on track to operate in three-receiver sets alongside Nico Collins, and Noel could also get a chance to return punts if Berrios sits out.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Nursing hamstring injury
Berrios did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring injury, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
It's unclear when Berrios sustained the injury, but it was severe enough for him to miss Wednesday's practice. He'll have two more days to return to practice and fade an injury tag heading into Sunday's regular-season opener against the Rams in Los Angeles. Berrios signed a one-year deal with the Texans in March and is slated to see most of his playing time on special teams as a returner.

Texans' Braxton Berrios: Scores lone TD in preseason opener
Berrios caught all three targets for 33 yards, including a 14-yard touchdown reception, in Saturday's 20-10 preseason loss to the Vikings. He also had a 24-yard kickoff return and nine-yard punt return.
Berrios did most of the work on a misdirection play, catching the ball near the line of scrimmage and scooting up field before lowering his shoulder at the goal line. His primary job for the Texans is expected to be that of a returner, but the touchdown catch was a significant moment in Berrios' first game back since tearing his ACL last season while with Miami.
