2024 Fantasy Outlook
A sixth-round pick out of Louisville in 2024, Jordan's lack of size, speed or power make him a longshot to earn a big role in the NFL. He's a smart runner with plus vision who can get the most of of his blocking, and his receiving skills and enthusiasm for pass protection could get him on the field on third downs, but he could have trouble generating chunk plays. Jordan joins a crowded Texans backfield that now features Joe Mixon in a lead role, and he may need to beat out special teams stalwart Dare Ogunbowale for a roster spot. Read Past Outlooks

The Texans signed Jordan (oblique) to the practice squad Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Jordan was moved to the Texans' injured reserve after being waived with an injury designation at the end of training camp. He was set to miss the entire regular season, but the two sides were able to reach an injury settlement in early September. Jordan appears to be fully healthy from his oblique injury, and the rookie sixth-round pick will be available for a game-day elevation if the Texans need additional depth at running back.
