Texans eager to hit ground running in London with new addition Marvin Harrison Jr.
In Houston, Harrison will reunite with C.J. Stroud, who was his quarterback for two of his three seasons at Ohio State.
Houston Texans running back David Montgomery and safety Jalen Pitre will sit out Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. Both players were sidelined in last week's 26-3 victory over the Tennessee Titans. Coach DeMeco Ryans had previously deemed the duo as week-to-week, with neither participating in practice sessions on Wednesday or Thursday.
Wide receiver Tank Dell, dealing with a severe knee injury, will also be absent, having last played a regular-season game in December 2024. Rookie Kamari Ramsey took over for Pitre in the nickel role, and offensive coordinator Nick Caley praised the versatile and smart young man for stepping in seamlessly. Montgomery, who shared reps with Woody Marks during the season's first month, will now wear the unquestioned lead-back tag.
The Texans' roster could see a boost from Jawhar Jordan, who was elevated from the practice squad to help shore up the running back position. Offensive coordinator Nick Caley described Jordan as businesslike and full of enthusiasm for opportunities as they arise.
