Top Kurt Hinish News

  • Texans' Kurt Hinish: Staying in H-Town

    Houston signed Hinish to a one-year contract Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Hinish would otherwise have been bound for free agency, but he was able to get a deal done to stick with the Texans for at least one more season. He projects to play a rotational role on the interior of the defensive line again in 2025.

  • Texans' Kurt Hinish: Activated from IR

    The Texans activated Hinish (undisclosed) from the reserve/injured list Tuesday.

    Hinish was placed on IR at the end of training camp due to an unspecified injury. He was designated to return Oct. 2, and he'll now rejoin the Texans' 53-man roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Packers. Hinish played in all 17 regular-season games for the Texans in 2023 and finished with 22 tackles (11 solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one pass defended.

  • Texans' Kurt Hinish: Has practice window opened

    The Texans opened Hinish's (undisclosed) practice window Wednesday.

    Hinish landed on IR due to an undisclosed issue in late August. After sitting out the first four weeks of the campaign, the 25-year-old is now eligible to return. Houston has 21 days to add Hinish to its active roster; if he's not activated within that window, he'll be unable to return this season. Upon his potential activation, Hinish is likely to play a rotational role along the Texans' defensive line.

  • Texans' Kurt Hinish: Upgrades to full activity Thursday

    Hinish (shoulder) practiced fully Thursday.

    Following Wednesday's limited session, Hinish was able to practice without limitations Thursday, implying that he'll return from his one-game absence this weekend against the Chiefs. The 300-pounder is expected to operate in his usual rotational role on Houston's defensive line behind starters Maliek Collins and Roy Lopez.

  • Texans' Kurt Hinish: Out with shoulder injury

    Hinish (shoulder) is out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    Hinish was unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week. He has played a rotational role along Houston's defensive line this season, tallying 16 total tackles and one sack across 11 games.

  • Texans' Kurt Hinish: Back in full Thursday

    Hinish (illness) practiced in full Thursday.

    Hinish missed Wednesday's session due to an illness, but his return to Thursday's practice as a full participant indicates the issue isn't a concern. The 300-pounder should continue serving as a rotational piece within Houston's defensive line Sunday against Jacksonville.

  • Texans' Kurt Hinish: Making progress

    Hinish (foot) was able to log a full practice Friday.

    Hinish is still considered questionable for Sunday's contest with the Chargers despite his upgrade from a limited participant Thursday. If he is unable to play, Michael Dwumfour and Thomas Booker will likely continue to see depth work at defensive tackle.
