  • Texans' Jimmie Ward: Sheds injury tag ahead of Week 5

    Ward (groin) was a full participant in Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bills.

    Ward injured his groin during practice leading up to Week 4 and was forced to miss the contest against the Jaguars. He was limited during Wednesday's and Thursday's practices, but he's good to go for Week 5 after practicing in full Friday. Ward will reclaim his starting role at free safety alongside strong safety Jalen Pitre. Ward played every defensive snap through the first three games of the regular season, and over that span he accumulated 15 tackles (11 solo) and one pass defended.

  • Texans' Jimmie Ward: Returns to field

    Ward (groin) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Ward closed out last week with back-to-back DNPs before being ruled out for the Texans' Week 4 win over the Jaguars. His return to the field Wednesday should put him on a trajectory to have a good chance of suiting up Sunday against the Bills.

  • Texans' Jimmie Ward: Out for Week 4

    Ward (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Ward appeared to have suffered the injury in Wednesday's practice, as he was limited that day and then finished the week with back-to-back DNPs on Thursday and Friday. Eric Murray figures to draw in as the starting safety next to Calen Bullock for Houston.

  • Texans' Jimmie Ward: Injury-marred 2023

    Ward (quadriceps) recorded 50 tackles, three passes defensed, one interception and one forced fumble over 10 games in 2023.

    Ward, a team captain, was beset by injuries all season long. He missed time due to hip, hamstring and shoulder injuries before a quadricep ended his season in December. In between the setbacks, Ward played well, and his one interception was an end-zone pick that sealed a win over Denver. Houston went 6-4 in games he played and could use his stabilizing presence on the back end. Ward turns 33 in July and will be entering his 11th season.

  • Texans' Jimmie Ward: Placed on IR

    Ward (quadriceps) was placed on injured reserve by the Texans on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Ward suffered the quadriceps injury in Sunday's loss to the Browns and he'll now be forced to miss the remainder of the regular season with a shot at returning if Houston advances deep into the postseason. In his place, Adrian Amos or DeAndre Houston-Carson will take over at starting strong safety, beginning in Week 17 against the Titans.

  • Texans' Jimmie Ward: Won't return versus Cleveland

    Ward (quadriceps) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Ward left in the first half after sustaining a quadriceps injury and had one tackle before his exit. It's the second week in a row that Ward has been taken out of a game after leaving last week's contest with a concussion. DeAndre Houston-Carson will fill in at strong safety alongside free safety Jalen Pitre for the rest of Sunday's game.

  • Texans' Jimmie Ward: Questionable to return

    Ward is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns with a quad injury.

    The safety made one tackle before exiting. Ward has 50 tackles, three passes defensed, an interception and a forced fumble in 2023. DeAndre Houston-Carson should see more playing time in his absence.

  • Texans' Jimmie Ward: Good to go versus Cleveland

    Ward (concussion) carries no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns.
