Brevin Jordan Suffers Injury in Texans Practice
Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan suffered a lower leg injury during a practice on Monday. The player had to be carted off the field after initially trying to walk on his own.
The injury occurred during an 11-on-11 play, when quarterback C.J. Stroud threw a pass to Jordan in the central zone of the field. Jordan jumped to catch the ball, but failed to secure the pass.
Upon falling, Jordan immediately collapsed to the ground, clutching the lower part of his right leg. Although he initially got up with the help of the trainers, he refused to walk with them, insisting that he was fine.
After a few moments without putting weight on his leg, Jordan was visibly emotional as he approached the medical cart.
The Texans players and coaches gathered around Jordan, who was crying in the cart. After Jordan left, the players gathered in a circle to talk before resuming practice.
Jordan had already suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears in 2024. He finished that game without knowing he had the injury.
Before the injury, the player selected in the fifth round of the 2021 draft accumulated 532 receiving yards and five touchdowns. Despite the injury, the Texans extended Jordan’s contract for one year, worth $2.1 million and $850,000 guaranteed, as he was projected to be a free agent in 2025.
Jordan was competing for a starting position. The other remaining tight ends on the roster are Dalton Schultz, Cade Stover, Dalton Keene, and Luke Lachey.
