Wide receiver Robert Woods isn’t exactly young in football terms – he is 32 years old. Nonetheless, as the seasoned veteran approaches free agency, <a href="https://www.nfl.com/news/robert-woods-open-to-re-signing-with-texans-playing-in-high-powered-new-offense" rel="noopener">he is hopeful to stay</a> in Houston.</p><p>“Feeling good, kind of getting ready to revamp and go another year again,” Woods said via Coral Smith of NFL.com. “Building the body back up, just like always and going into Year 13 and still just chasing it. I had a great time here in Houston, loved being with C.J. [Stroud], a great quarterback, loved our receiver room, our coaches. We’ll see how it goes in free agency. You know how free agency is. Whatever is best for me and my family and my football career. If that’s in Houston, however it goes, we’ll look to that.”</p><p>The Buffalo Bills drafted Woods back in the second round of the 2013 NFL Draft out of USC. Woods was with the Bills from 2013 to 2016 before joining the Los Angeles Rams for five seasons, from 2017 to 2021. The Tennessee Titans were Woods’ home for the 2022 season before he joined the Texans, his team for the last two years.</p><p>Across his 12-year career in the NFL, Woods has 683 receptions for 8,233 yards and 38 touchdowns. With the exception of his last two seasons with the Texans, Woods has collected at least 500 receiving yards in every season, including two seasons with north of 1,000 yards. The 32-year-old’s 20 receptions last year were a career low.</p><p>Woods appeared in 29 games for the Texans over his two seasons with the club, but he only started 15 of those. Nico Collins and Tank Dell have garnered the majority of WR starts for the Texans, and rightfully so. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/houston-texans/texans-news-nico-collins-bold-prediction-fans-2025">Collins is very bullish on what’s to come with the Texans</a>, and Woods is hopeful he can continue to be a part of it. Aside from possibly re-signing Woods, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/houston-texans/3-sneaky-good-nfl-free-agents-texans-need-to-sign">Texans could make a free agency splash</a> in other ways as well.</p><p>NFL free agency will kick off on Wednesday, March 12, at 4:00 PM Eastern time.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The embarrassment of losing to the Jets is one thing, but losing both QB C.J. Stroud and WR Nico Collins makes the defeat sting that much worse.</p><p>A shot from Jets star defensive tackle Quinnen Williams late in the fourth quarter <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/texans-news-cj-stroud-injury-davis-mills-jets" rel="noopener">bounced Stroud’s head</a> off the turf, causing him to leave the game. The Texans confirmed Stroud had entered the concussion protocol, and he did not return to action. Houston also lost WR Nico Collins to a calf injury early in the game.</p><p>After the loss, veteran wideout Robert Woods <a href="https://twitter.com/AaronWilson_NFL/status/1733968621750104363" rel="noopener">weighed in on</a> the adversity faced. “I mean, it’s always tough, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/texans-news-nico-collins-out-hamstring-injury-jets-wide-receiver-woes-pile-up" rel="noopener">losing Nico,</a> Tank (Dell), C.J., anybody on our team. But we have to make adjustments and rotate guys and be able to still make those plays,” courtesy of KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson.</p><p>Woods called Collins’ injury a “kinda next guy up” situation, mentioning the larger role WR Xavier Hutchinson had to fill as a result of the depleted Texans receiving corps. Still, he expressed confidence that “we’re all capable of making plays and filling in those roles.”</p><p>The loss to New York dropped Houston to 7-6, and saw them miss a golden opportunity on a day that the Jacksonville Jaguars and Indianapolis Colts both lost.</p><p>More concerning after the game though, is what the Texans offense is going to look like in Week 15.</p><h2><b>Health a major Houston concern</b></h2><p>Backup QB Davis Mills entered for Stroud, a player Woods referred to as a “great quarterback, able to make good throws.” But facing a stout Jets defense and some nasty weather, Mills predictably faltered in his cameo. He finished just 1-for-5 passing for four yards.</p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Texans-news-tank-Dell_s-devastating-injury-update-confirms-Houston_s-worst-fears.jpg"></figure><p>On Sunday, Collins was stepping into a larger role in the offense himself. That’s because Tank Dell suffered a fractured fibula in Week 13, ending his season.</p><p>Woods correctly pointed out that if the Texans have playoff ambitions, factors such as injuries and the weather will only pop up more as the season wears on. For him, it’s a simple solution.</p><p>“[W]e gotta all combine and collectively do this.”</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The former <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/texans-hc-demeco-ryans-keeps-it-real-on-early-impressions-of-c-j-stroud-will-anderson-jr" rel="noopener">Ohio State standout</a> continued to get familiar with Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik’s playbook, and he also spent much time building early chemistry with the team’s array of weapons on the offensive side of the ball.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en"><a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Texans?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Texans</a> OTAs underway: C.J.

Following a roller-coaster one-season run with the Tennessee Titans, Woods opted to sign off on a two-year deal with the Texans in March.</p><p>Woods worked with Stroud during the first week of the Texans’ OTAs. Overall, there is much that has <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On40yxUgHtc" rel="noopener">stood out</a> to Woods about the No. 2 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.</p><p>“I would say a good leader already coming in, vocal, speaking up in meetings, being able to sit with him at times in the quarterback meetings and hearing him ask some great questions, trying to pick apart the offense and grasp it pretty early,” Woods said during a press conference at the Texans’ OTAs. “Out on the field, making some strong throws, good reads, good decisions.</p><p>“That’s really a good thing to start with a rookie quarterback coming in, being able to make the right decisions, know when to throw it, know when to pull it down. Good decisions on timing and accuracy with the football.”</p><p>Stroud also left a strong first impression on Texans safety Jalen Pitre.</p><p>“A real professional, every day he’s looking for something to get better at,” Pitre said during a press conference at the Texans’ OTAs. “Today after OTA2, he come up to the DBs asking different things we’re seeing and different ways he can get better.</p><p>“It’s a real professional in C.J., and you could see why he was drafted so high because he really cares about the game of football.”</p><p>The Texans’ OTAs schedule will continue on May 30.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Texans are expected to draft a quarterback with the second overall pick and now that player will have one of the most reliable pass catchers in the league to lean on.</p><p>Woods will be heading into his 11th season in the NFL. After five very productive years with the Los Angeles Rams, Woods signed a free-agent contract with the Tennessee Titans for the 2022 season. Woods appeared in all 17 games with 15 starts, but he didn’t appear to be a good fit for the Titans offense and had career lows in yards (527) and yards per catch (9.9)</p><p>When the Titans announced they were releasing Woods, <a href="https://twitter.com/robertwoods/status/1628455493717970944" rel="noopener">his response</a> on Twitter was<a href="https://clutchpoints.com/titans-news-robert-woods-1-word-tweet-after-tennessee-exit-proves-he-wanted-it-too" rel="noopener"> a clear sign</a> that both sides were happy to move on.</p><p>At his peak, Woods was one of the more productive wide receivers in the NFL. He posted career-best numbers in 2018 with 86 catches for 1,219 and six touchdowns. He followed that up with 90-catch seasons in 2019 and 2020. Although Woods was part of the Rams’ Super Bowl team in 2021, injuries kept him sidelined for most of the season.</p><p>Robert Woods was drafted in the second round (41st overall) of the 2013 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills after an All-American career at USC. He spent his first four seasons with the Bills before signing with the Rams as a free agent in 2017.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
