Dorsett is slated to be released by the Raiders on Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dorsett spent the entire offseason in Las Vegas, but he won't remain part of Jimmy Garoppolo's receiving corps as the deadline to cut down to a 53-man roster quickly approaches. The 30-year-old veteran secured 20 of 40 targets for 257 yards and a touchdown in 15 appearances with the Texans last season. He should be able to secure a depth spot elsewhere in the league.

Dorsett (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Colts.

The Texans listed Dorsett as a limited practice participant Thursday due to a hamstring issue.
EDGE Analysis
Dorsett wasn't included on the Texans' initial Week 18 practice report issued Wednesday, so his addition a day later might suggest that he suffered the injury at some point during Thursday's practice. The wideout will have another chance Friday to practice in some capacity before the Texans decide whether he carries an injury designation into Sunday's season finale in Indianapolis.

Dorsett caught three of a season-high six targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 31-3 loss to Jacksonville in Week 17.
EDGE Analysis
Dorsett, who played 39 snaps, has benefitted from Nico Collins' season-ending foot injury and racked up 16 targets over the last five weeks while averaging 44 snaps. His playing time dipped the last two weeks with Brandin Cooks' return from a calf injury, but Dorsett remains involved in a weak passing attack.

Dorsett recorded three catches on three targets for 45 yards in Saturday's 19-14 win over the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Dorsett finished with fewer targets than both Brandin Cooks and Chris Moore in targets, though he was the most efficient of the group with his opportunity. All three of his receptions came in the fourth quarter, highlighted by 20 and 18-yard gains. Despite an increased role in the absence of Nico Collins (foot), Dorsett managed to top 40 receiving yards for the first time since Week 9.

Dorsett did not catch his lone target in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
With Houston's top two wide receivers unavailable due to injury for a second consecutive week, Dorsett once again was given ample playing time, and for a second consecutive week his production was meager. The veteran wideout has four catches on seven targets for 36 yards over his last three games.

Dorsett recorded two receptions on three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Cowboys.
EDGE Analysis
Dorsett was expected to see an expanded role in the absence of Brandin Cooks (groin) and Nico Collins (groin). However, he was out-produced by both Chris Moore and Amari Rodgers, while delivering a disappointing performance of his own. Dorsett will fade to an even further peripheral role in the offense once one of Cooks or Collins is able to return, though he's proven unreliable even in their absence.

Dorsett is in line to work as a starting outside wide receiver during Sunday's game against the Cowboys, as the Texans have ruled out both Nico Collins (foot) and Brandin Cooks (calf) for the contest, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 5-foot-10, 192-pound Dorsett and the 6-foot-1, 200-pound Chris Moore will presumably see most of the reps on the perimeter for Houston, while the lone other healthy receiver on the 53-man roster -- the 5-foot-9, 212-pound Amari Rodgers -- lacks the speed to play on the outside and is better suited for the slot role. Houston will likely add a receiver or two from the practice squad Saturday to restore some depth at the position, but Dorsett should be primed for a heavy snap count nonetheless. When Cooks and Collins were both sidelined back in Week 9 against the Eagles, Dorsett handled a season-high 77 percent snap share and finished with three catches for 69 yards on five targets.
