The Houston Texans are bringing back a receiver from injured reserve.
The club announced Saturday they have activated Noah Brown, who had been placed on injured reserve after Week 1 with a groin injury.
Houston also designated cornerback D’Angelo Ross as their standard practice squad elevation for Week 6 against the New Orleans Saints. Ross was elevated last week against the Atlanta Falcons. The 26-year-old has one more standard elevation remaining.
The Texans waived cornerback Alex Austin from the practice squad. Houston claimed the former Buffalo Bills 2023 seventh-round pick off waivers at the end of preseason.
Kickoff is at 12:00 p.m. Sunday from NRG Stadium.
