Will Kamari Lassiter play today?: Update on Texans rookie CB

Texans rookie cornerback Kamari Lassiter is dealing with a concussion heading into Monday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys.

The Houston Texans are gaining back wide receiver Nico Collins and defensive tackle Mario Edwards Jr. for Monday’s showdown in Arlington against the Dallas Cowboys.

While the duo are a welcomed addition to the lineup, Houston (6-4) could be without two starters in the secondary. Rookie cornerback Kamari Lassiter left during the third quarter of Week 10’s loss against the Detroit Lions and could be out on primetime.

The Texans have put faith in Lassiter to step up opposite Derek Stingley Jr. He’s been one of the more decisive defenders in coverage and an ideal secondary option for Houston’s man-heavy defense when active, but will he be good to go on primetime?

Here’s an update on the Texans’ rookie defender heading into AT&T Stadium.

Kamari Lassiter injury update

Lassiter, who missed two games earlier in the season with a shoulder injury, left during Sunday’s game with a concussion. He did not practice during Thursday or Friday’s open session as he remains in protocol.

Since the Texans have an extra day of practice, everything is shifted back by one. Usually, Thursdays provide a better indication of a player’s status because they are the most strenuous practice of the week. That changed to Friday.

Lassiter did however appear in Saturday’s practice. Much like Collins, it’ll be another week after being cleared before fans watch the start defender take the field.

According to KPRC2 Sports Aaron Wilson, Lassiter will not play on Monday night against the NFC East foe.

How long will Kamari Lassiter be out? 

Per Wilson, Laisster should be good when Houston takes on Tennessee next Sunday at NRG Stadium. Even if Lassiter felt healthy enough to play, the Texans are being precautionary with their star defender, as they generally are with players one week after a concussion.

Linebacker Henry To’oTo’o suffered a concussion in Week 6’s win over the New England Patriots and was held out for Week 7’s game against the Green Bay Packers for precautionary purposes. The player might feel content, but the team doesn’t want to risk further injury.

Kamari Lassiter stats

A second-round pick out of Georgia, Lassiter recorded two interceptions last week, including one before halftime. In eight games, he’s collected 29 tackles, eight pass breakups and three interceptions.

Opposing quarterbacks have completed just 16 of 38 passes for 247 yards for a 42.1 completion percentage with two touchdowns allowed. 

Texans CB depth chart

With Stingley and Lassiter potentially out, here’s the rest of the cornerbacks on the active roster:

  • Ka’dar Hollman
  • Jeff Okudah
  • Kris Boyd

Okudah, who signed a one-year deal this offseason after four years with the Lions and Atlanta Falcons, was designated to return to practice from the injured reserve last week. He was added to the roster on Monday in place of former New England Patriots starter Myles Bryant.

According to Wilson, the Texans plan on starting Hollmon opposite Stingley this week in Arlington.

Hollman, 30, started one game last season for the Texans en route to securing a division title behind quarterback C.J. Stroud. He played in three games for the Baltimore Ravens before being picked up by Houston to the active roster earlier this season.

Kickoff is scheduled for 7:15 p.m. The game will be nationally televised on ESPN and ABC.

15 biggest salary cap hits for the Ravens in 2024 after first wave of NFL free agency

With the second wave of free agency heating up and updated signings, we’re releasing the Ravens 15 biggest salary cap hits according to Over The Cap. 

Change is always good for the soul, and after a stunning loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC title game, Baltimore has undergone a dramatic reconstruction that could pay off with championship dividends.

Changes hit the defensive coaching staff as Mike Macdonald accepted the Seahawks head coaching job, Anthony Weaver became the defensive coordinator in Miami, and Zach Orr was promoted from inside linebackers coach to defensive coordinator.

Baltimore signed Justin Madubuike, one of the league’s best defensive linemen, to an extension. After inking Madubuike to a deal, Baltimore landed Derrick Henry for two years and $16 million.

However, the Ravens suffered significant free-agent losses. Patrick Queen (Steelers), Geno Stone (Bengals), and Gus Edwards (Chargers) were among eight free agents to sign elsewhere. Baltimore also traded Morgan Moses to the Jets and released Tyus Bowser in a cost-cutting move.

With the second wave of free agency heating up and updated signings of cornerback Ka’Dar Hollman, linebacker Chris Board, and offensive guard Josh Jones, we’re releasing the 15 most significant salary cap hits according to Over The Cap.

In 2023, after being out of the league the prior two years, Hollman saw most of his action on special teams, recording ten tackles and recovering a fumble.

Texans sign CB Ka’dar Hollman to reserve/future contract

The Houston Texans are bringing back former cornerback Ka’dar Hollman on a reserve/future contract.

The Houston Texans want to make sure they didn’t miss something with a former defensive back.

The Texans signed Ka’dar Hollman to a reserve/future contract on Thursday, making the second time that the former Toledo product will be with Houston.

The first time was in 2021 when the Texans traded a 2022 seventh-rounder to the Green Bay Packers for Hollman. Houston waived Hollman at the end of preseason as part of the mandatory cuts to a 53-man roster.

Since the Texans waived Hollman, he has had a stint each with the New Orleans Saints, New York Giants, Atlanta Falcons, Miami Dolphins, and two stints with the San Francisco 49ers. The Dolphins were the most recent team to have Hollman under contract as he was a member of their practice squad starting Dec. 14 through the end of the season.

Hollman has played 18 games in his career, all for the Packers, logging one start, 10 tackles, and three pass breakups.

Dolphins sign former Packers CB to their practice squad

He was originally a sixth-round pick in 2019.

While the Miami Dolphins lost practice squad cornerback Kalon Barnes to the Minnesota Vikings, they had an open spot and were able to fill it on Wednesday, signing cornerback Ka’dar Hollman to their practice squad.

Hollman, 28, was originally a sixth-round draft pick by the Green Bay Packers in 2019 after a collegiate career at Toledo. He spent two seasons with the Packers, playing in 18 games and recording 10 tackles and three passes defensed.

Heading into this third year, Hollman was traded to the Houston Texans. He hasn’t seen any regular season action since 2020, but he’s spent time with the New Orleans Saints, New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers and Atlanta Falcons since then.

With Miami suffering a number of injuries at the position this season, there’s a chance that they could call on Hollman to provide some depth at some point.
