For the second straight season, Brevin Jordan’s season is over before it really began.
The Texans placed the tight end on injured reserve on Tuesday, after he went down in training camp Monday with what appeared to be a lower leg or knee injury. The team didn’t give specifics, but it’s the second straight year Jordan’s season has been cut short after tearing his ACL in Week 2 last year.
“It’s really rough for a guy that just bounced back from a major injury,” head coach DeMeco Ryans said. “It’s tough on Brevin right now and tough on our entire team.”
A fifth-round pick in 2021, Jordan played in 14 games in 2023, posting a career-high 219 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Over his career, he’s caught 53 passes for 532 yards and five scores.
The Texans signed Jordan to a one-year extension worth $2.1 million, with $850,000 guaranteed, as he was projected to be a free agent in 2025. Now he will be back on the road to recovery for another season.
