Auclair was cut from the Titans' practice squad Monday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Auclair joined the team's practice squad Oct. 31, but he never earned his way to the active roster. The 29-year-old will now work to find a new opportunity elsewhere.

Auclair (knee) signed with the Titans' practice squad Monday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Auclair was part of the Texans' final roster cuts, and he was dealing with a knee injury upon his release. Now healthy, Auclair has been able to find a new opportunity in Tennessee. With the Titans currently having four healthy tight ends on their active roster, he may have a difficult time finding himself on the 53-man roster.

The Texans released Auclair (knee) on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Auclair didn't appear in any of the team's three preseason games due to a knee injury, but he wasn't released with an injury designation. The 6-foot-6 tight end has appeared in 56 career games but never been a receiving threat, so his fantasy upside is limited.

Auclair (knee) will not play in Thursday's preseason game against the 49ers, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Auclair has been sidelined since July 29 and will not play in any preseason action. The Texans are currently shorthanded at tight end, as both Pharaoh Brown (hamstring) and Teagan Quitoriano (knee) are also sidelined.

Auclair (knee) is not expected to play in the Texans' exhibition matchup with the Rams on Friday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Auclair has been nursing a right knee injury for the majority of training camp. The sixth-year tight end currently projects to be the team's No. 3 tight end and is competing for a spot on the final 53-man roster.

Auclair (knee) is not anticipated to play during the Texans' preseason matchup against the Saints on Saturday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Auclair has been dealing with a right knee injury suffered during Houston's practice on July 29. In the sixth-year tight end's absence, fellow backups Teagan Quitoriano, Mason Schreck and Seth Green should see increased usage versus New Orleans.

Auclair (knee) left practice Friday with an ice bag on his right knee, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The exact nature of the injury isn't clear at this time. Auclair will hope to return to the practice field as soon as possible, because after Houston added Teagan Quitoriano in the fifth round of this year's draft, his status heading into the regular season may depend on whether the Texans decide to keep four tight ends on their 53-man roster.

The Texans re-signed Auclair on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Auclair will return to Houston for a second straight season. The veteran tight end appeared in 16 contests during the 2021 campaign, across which span he secured all five of his targets for 47 yards and one score.

Auclair caught his lone target for seven yards in Week 18's 28-25 loss to Tennessee.

EDGE Analysis

This was just Auclair's second catch since Week 9, and he finished the season with five catches on five targets for 47 yards and one score. He played all 16 games, sometimes starting, but the 28-year-old was used primarily as a blocker. He becomes an unrestricted free agent this offseason but could return on a modest contract to serve a similar role in 2022.

Auclair was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old was forced to miss Week 17 after being placed on the COVID list Dec. 31. Auclair has had a limited offensive impact this season, making only four catches for 40 yards and a touchdown over 15 games.
