Texans' Denico Autry: Drop in production in 2024
Autry finished the 2024 regular season with 13 total tackles (eight solo), including 3.0 sacks, while also adding three passes defensed over 10 games.
Autry signed with the Texans ahead of the 2024 campaign, operating as a depth option behind Will Anderson and Danielle Hunter. Additionally, the defensive lineman was suspended for the first six games of the year for violating the NFL's policy against performance-enhancing drugs. As a result of his role and the suspension, Autry was limited to his lowest tackle total since recording 13 takedowns in 2014. The 34-year-old is under contract for one more year with Houston in 2025.

Texans' Denico Autry: Will suit up in wild-card round
Autry (knee) is active for Saturday's wild-card matchup against the Chargers.
Autry missed Houston's regular-season finale due to a knee injury and began this week by sitting out practice. However, he upgraded to a limited session Wednesday before logging a full practice Friday and is good to go for the wild-card game against Los Angeles. When healthy this season, Autry has mostly served in a rotational role, coming off the bench in eight of his 10 contests.

Texans' Denico Autry: Questionable for wild-card round
Autry (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's AFC wild-card game against the Chargers, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
Autry appears towards being on the probable side of playing as he was a full participant in Thursday's practice. Barring any setbacks, Autry and Derek Barnett should serve as the Texans' top rotational defensive ends Saturday behind starters Will Anderson and Danielle Hunter.

Texans' Denico Autry: Returns to practice Wednesday
Autry (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Autry was held out of the Texans' regular-season finale against the Titans due to a lingering knee injury. He opened this week as a DNP on Tuesday, but his ability to practice Wednesday indicates that he is progressing in his recovery and should be able to play in Saturday's AFC wild-card game against the Chargers.

Texans' Denico Autry: Sits out practice

He's part of the rotation at defensive end and had 13 tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and three passes defensed over 10 games played during the regular season.

Texans' Denico Autry: Missing Week 18
Autry (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Titans.
Autry appears to have aggravated his knee injury in the Texans' Week 17 loss to the Chiefs on Christmas Day, as he played just 15 defensive snaps and was unable to practice all week. The 34-year-old's absence Sunday could also be precautionary, given that the Texans have already secured the No. 4 seed in the AFC playoffs. Regardless, Dylan Horton is expected to serve as one of the Texans' top reserve defensive ends in Autry's stead.

Texans' Denico Autry: Questionable, but expected to play
Autry (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Ravens but is expected to play, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Autry has been listed as a limited practice participant all week due to a knee injury he likely picked up in Houston's Week 16 loss to Kansas City. Autry's official status for Christmas Day may not be known until the Texans announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Derek Barnett would serve as the top backup defensive end behind starters Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson if Autry is not cleared to play.
