With Brown and tight end Brevin Jordan out with an ankle injury, the Texans elevated tight ends Jordan Akins and Mason Schreck from the practice squad to fill in behind veteran tight end O.J. Howard.
A former third-round selection, Akins hauled in a four-yard touchdown last week against the Chicago Bears. “It was wonderful, man,” Akins said this week. “Definitely a lot of stress off my back and off my chest. It had been a minute since I had been in there, almost two years.” Akins caught 24 passes for 214 yards on 33 targets in 13 games and three starts last season for the Texans.
