On the Jacksonville Jaguars' final Week 3 injury report, offensive lineman Wyatt Milum has been ruled out, while left guard Ezra Cleveland is questionable.
But what about the Houston Texans' final injury report?
Through the week, the Texans had seven players listed on their injury report, but just about all of them will be a full-go for Sunday's game.
The one player that Houston will be without is cornerback Jaylin Smith, who has already been ruled out with a hamstring injury.
Smith was a third-round pick by the Texans in this past April's draft out of USC. In two games, he's played 21 snaps on defense with no targets coming his way.
Smith has also contributed heavily on special teams for the Texans, with 34 snaps over the first two weeks, according to PFF.
Off the injury report and making his 2025 debut is wide receiver Christian Kirk, who was traded from the Jaguars to the Texans earlier this offseason.
Kirk was sidelined for Houston's first two games this season with a hamstring injury.
“I think at the time you get traded away from somewhere, you feel like you need to prove something. But, for me, it’s just honestly getting back out on the field," Kirk said via Sports Illustrated. "It’s been so long since I’ve actually played in a game. So, I’m just looking forward to just getting back out there, playing with this team, and hopefully getting us back on track.”
Kirk spent the past three seasons with the Jaguars. During that span, he appeared in 37 games, which included making 36 starts, and caught 236 passes at 12.3 yards per catch with 17 touchdowns.
Through two games, the Houston offense is averaging just 14.0 points per game. This includes totaling just 166.5 passing yards per game.
Kirk's return to the lineup is expected to provide the Texans' offense with a boost.
"We need that. We need playmakers like that to come back on the team, and I'm glad them boys back," Nico Collins said of Christian Kirk's return, via Sports Illustrated. "Can't wait to go out in Jacksonville, man, and have fun. It'a homecoming for [Christian Kirk]. Can't wait to go back."
