Houston Texans wide receiver Jaylin Noel is not listed on the Week 1 injury report released Wednesday. He is ready to participate in the team's season opener versus the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.
Noel faced challenges earlier in training camp due to hamstring and finger injuries. However, he has now been cleared to play and is gearing up for the start of the regular season.
The second-year player is in competition for playing time with Xavier Hutchinson. Both are seeking opportunities in the Texans' receiving lineup, which also includes Nico Collins and Kayshon Boutte, who was acquired through a recent trade.
