Xavier Hutchinson

HOUWR • #19

Xavier Hutchinson caught 4-of-6 targets for 52 yards in the Texans’ Divisional Round loss to the Chiefs.

With the Texans short-handed at receiver and predictably playing from behind, second-year pro Hutchinson set a new season high for targets. It, of course, is never a great sign when your season high for targets is six and it comes under depth chart duress during the playoffs. Going on 25 with only 20 career regular season grabs, Hutchinson should not be considered a 2025 53-man roster lock. He will be given the benefit of the doubt, however, especially since he stands in at 6-foot-3, 210 pounds.
