Texans' Jaylen Reed: Remaining on IR
Reed (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Ravens.
Reed was designated to return from IR on Wednesday and ended the week on a high note with a full practice Friday. However, the rookie sixth-rounder is not quite ready to make his NFL regular-season debut, and with the Texans on a bye Week 6, his next opportunity to do so will be Week 7 against the Seahawks on Monday, Oct. 20.

Texans' Jaylen Reed: Expected to come off IR
Reed (ankle) is expected to be activated from the injured reserve list this week, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Reed (ankle) was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return Tuesday.
Reed has been recovering well from the sprained knee he suffered in early August, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, but he will now be forced to miss at least four games to open the 2025 campaign. The rookie was competing for a depth role at strong safety behind starter Calen Bullock, and Russ Yeast sticks out as the most likely candidate to handle the No. 2 role for the time being.

Texans' Jaylen Reed: Snagged by Houston in sixth round
The Texans selected Reed in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 187th overall.
Reed spent his four-year college career at Penn State and played alongside Jaquan Brisker and Ji'Ayir Brown. Reed started in each of his last two years for the Nittany Lions, and in 2024 he led the team in tackles (98) and interceptions (three) while being named to the Second Team All-Big Ten. He has the speed and competitive urgency to cover a lot of ground in the passing game and thrive in blitz schemes. However, Reed also showed a tendency to miss some crucial tackles due to that speed and angle discipline, which could limit him to backup duties and special teams if he can't cut down on those mistakes at the NFL level.
