Pre-Season Outlook
When the Texans had a rash of wide receiver injuries late in the 2023 season, Hutchinson earned a role in the offense. However, Hutchinson averaged 1.2 catches and 9.4 yards despite being targeted three times per game from Week 14 on. After Houston upgraded their receiver room in the offseason by trading for Stefon Diggs, it's unlikely that Hutchinson will see the field often unless the team has multiple injuries at the position.

Positioned for bigger role
Hutchinson finished the 2023 regular season with eight catches (on 19 targets) for 90 yards over 16 games. He also had five carries for 49 yards.
Analysis: Hutchinson played a minor role for much of the season before injuries led to increased opportunities late in the campaign. He had four catches during the postseason, including a failed flea flicker seen as the turning point of the season-ending loss to the Ravens. Hutchinson is positioned for a greater role in 2024, as Houston is expected to move on from Noah Brown and could save cap space by releasing Robert Woods, who turns 32 in April. However, the organization is likely to bring in more…read more

Remains involved in playoff win
Hutchinson caught both of his targets for 12 yards in Saturday's 45-14 wild-card playoff win over the Browns.
Analysis: Hutchinson received elevated snap counts over the final five weeks of the regular season due to injuries at wideout, but he slipped back to 20 snaps in the playoff win. That was because Robert Woods and Noah Brown returned from injuries. However, Brown left Saturday's game with a shoulder injury, and Woods played fewer snaps (15) than Hutchinson. Wideout availability for this week's matchup will be determined over the course of the week. The Texans will be on the road against Baltimore on…read more

Season-high snap count
Hutchinson caught one of four targets for six yards in Saturday's 23-19 win over the Colts in Week 18.
Analysis: Hutchinson played a season-high 36 snaps, as both Noah Brown (back) and Robert Woods (hip) were inactive. While Houston has dealt with wideout injuries all season, the situation reached a critical mass in Week 18. As such, Hutchinson and John Metchie (38 snaps) took on more prominent roles in the passing games behind Nico Collins. As Houston prepares for its first postseason game since 2019, Hutchinson's potential role depends on the health of Brown and Woods.

Stays healthy in win
Hutchinson caught two of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Titans.
Analysis: Hutchinson was on the field for 26 snaps and had one red-zone target in the win. Both he and fellow receiver John Metchie benefitted from injuries up the depth chart, as Noah Brown and Robert Woods left the game with hip injuries. That sets up a Week 18 scenario in which Hutchinson could be among Houston's top three wideouts when the team travels to Indianapolis for a must-win game.

Drop in snap count
Hutchinson caught one of two targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 36-22 loss to the Browns.
Analysis: Hutchinson, who played a season-high 65 snaps last week, was down to 31 in Sunday's game due to the return of Nico Collins from a calf injury. Despite the loss, the Texans remain in the hunt for the AFC South title, as the Colts and Jaguars also lost in Week 16. With something left to play for, that means any banged-up veteran wideouts should continue to keep Hutchinson on the lower end of the depth chart.

Season-high snap count
Hutchinson did not catch any of his three targets and had one carry for five yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Titans.
Analysis: He was on the field for a season-high 65 snaps, as Houston operated without Nico Collins (calf) and Tank Dell (lower leg). Hutchinson's rush attempt came in the red zone and was the rookie's fifth carry of the season. He was also the target on a couple of deep balls. If Collins is ready to go in Week 16 against the Browns, Hutchinson's playing time will take a hit.

Moves up depth chart
Hutchinson caught two of three targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Jets in Week 14.
Analysis: Hutchinson emerged as the snap-count leader (41) among the team's wideouts following Nico Collins' departure after just three plays with a calf injury. Collins joined Tank Dell (lower leg) and Dalton Schultz (hamstring) on the list of unavailable receiving options, which elevated Hutchinson and John Metchie (28 snaps). Noah Brown and Robert Woods were also in the lineup, but the passing game suffered without Collins and Dell. Adding to offense's troubles was quarterback C.J. Stroud leaving in…read more

Will not play Sunday
Hutchinson (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Broncos.
Analysis: Hutchinson will be the odd man out with Noah Brown returning from a knee injury. The rookie receiver saw 13 snaps in each of the last two weeks, catching his only target for a 34-yard gain in Week 12. His next opportunity to suit up will be in Week 14 against the Jets.

Has big play in loss
Hutchinson caught his lone target for 34 yards in Sunday's 24-21 loss to Jacksonville in Week 12.
Analysis: Hutchinson had the Texans' longest play, a 34-yard reception in the fourth quarter to set up a Nico Collins touchdown. The rookie has been more involved the last few weeks as wideouts further up the depth chart have dealt with injuries. He's on the lower end of the target pecking order, but given the surge of Houston's passing offense -- 367 yards per game, 10 touchdowns -- the last four weeks, Hutchinson could grab a few leftovers behind Nico Collins, Tank Dell. Dalton Schultz and Robert Woods.

Keeps running
Hutchinson did not catch his lone target and had one carry for 17 yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Bengals in Week 10.
Analysis: Hutchinson has received an uptick in usage while injuries have hit Houston's wide receivers the last few weeks, but he's made a bigger name for himself as a runner. For the second consecutive week, Hutchinson was used as a rusher on the opponent's side of the field and lugged the ball inside the 20-yard line. Each drive ended in a Houston touchdown. As the Texans operate without lead back Dameon Pierce, offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik has involved wideouts in the running attack, including…read more

Used as runner in win
Hutchinson was not targeted and had one carry for 12 yards in Sunday's 39-37 win over the Buccaneers in Week 9.
Analysis: Hutchinson's 12-yard carry was Houston's longest running play, and he now has three carries for 27 yards for the season. The rookie sixth-round pick has gone six games without being targeted, but he could move up the depth chart if the rib injury that forced John Metchie's exit from Sunday's game causes him to miss time.

Available Sunday
Hutchinson (foot) is active ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Analysis: The rookie out of Iowa State was limited during Wednesday's practice, but he was able to log consecutive days of full participation both Thursday and Friday. Hutchinson has a chance to see an uptick in snaps on the Texans' offense with Robert Woods (foot) missing time.

Questionable after full practices
Hutchinson (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Analysis: Hutchinson practiced fully Thursday and Friday after being a limited participant Wednesday, so the rookie is more likely than not to suit up, especially with Houston ruling out another receiver in Robert Woods (foot). Though he played his second-most snaps on offense (12) of the season in the Texans' last game Week 6 versus the Saints, Hutchinson won't necessarily see his role expand coming out of a Week 7 bye. While the Texans will be without Woods, the team will be getting rookie wideout Tank…read more

Back to practicing in full
Hutchinson (foot) was a full participant at practice Thursday.
Analysis: After being limited at practice Wednesday, Hutchinson was able to get back up to full speed Thursday. He's on track to play Sunday at Carolina, and if Robert Woods (foot) is sidelined, Hutchinson could see a slight uptick in playing time in Week 8.

Tending to foot injury
Hutchinson (foot) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
Analysis: It's unclear at this point when Hutchinson sustained the injury or how severe it is. In any case, he'll likely have to manage a full practice Thursday or Friday to avoid an injury designation going into the weekend.

Could see more snaps Sunday
Hutchinson may see added involvement in the passing game Sunday against the Saints with fellow rookie wideout Tank Dell (concussion) listed as questionable but not expected to play, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Meanwhile, Robert Woods (ribs) is listed as questionable but is expected to play, and Noah Brown (groin) was reinstated from injured reserve Saturday, so the Texans' receiver group is fairly healthy heading into Sunday, despite Dell's anticipated absence. Nico Collins and Woods will serve as the Texans' top two wideouts, but Hutchinson, Brown and John Metchie could all get opportunities to mix into three-receiver sets more than usual with Dell out of the mix.

No run on offense again
Hutchison played exclusively on special teams in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Steelers in Week 4.
Analysis: This marked the second consecutive week that Hutchinson was not used on offense. The sixth-round pick has one catch on two targets for nine yards through the first four weeks.

No run on offense
Hutchinson played special teams only in Sunday's 37-17 win over Jacksonville.
Analysis: Hutchinson did not get on the field for the offense for the first time in three games. From comments made by head coach DeMeco Ryans during the preseason, the rookie is still developing consistency, so any impact he may have could come later this season.

Targeted once in loss
Hutchinson did not catch his only target in Sunday's 31-20 loss to the Colts in Week 2.
Analysis: Hutchinson increased his snap count from seven in Week 1 to 18 in Week 2. The 2023 sixth-round draft pick has been targeted twice through the first two games and sits fifth on the depth chart.

Seven snaps in opener
Hutchinson caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 25-9 loss to Baltimore in Week 1.
Analysis: Hutchinson operated as the fifth wideout, as John Metchie (hamstring) was inactive. Hutchinson, selected in sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, played just seven snaps, well behind Robert Woods (58), Nico Collins (54), Noah Brown (52) and fellow rookie Tank Dell (37).

Third on depth chart
Hutchinson is listed third on the depth chart at one wide receiver position for Week 1 against Baltimore.
Analysis: Hutchinson sits behind fellow 2023 draft pick Tank Dell and starter Nico Collins. The Iowa State product did not develop as quickly as Dell during the preseason, but the 6-foot-3 Hutchinson has the size to be an ideal red zone target.

Leads receivers in finale
Hutchinson caught four of six targets for a team-high 48 yards in Houston's preseason finale against New Orleans on Sunday.
Analysis: Hutchinson had moments during the preseason but needs to develop consistency. "That's all we ask for from Hutch is continue to get better, work hard," Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans told Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 Houston. "That's what he's been doing, and it showed. It was good to see it finally come to fruition." Hutchinson, a sixth-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, earned a spot on the 53-man roster, as did fellow wideout draftee Tank Dell.
