Held to three catches in Week 3
Schultz caught all three of his targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Colts.
Schultz crashed back down to earth after recording 12 catches for 140 yards in the previous game. The Texans remained without top WR Nico Collins (hamstring), and only Xavier Hutchinson (51) had more receiving yards than Schultz as C.J. Stroud threw for just 167 yards in Sunday's loss. Schultz figures to remain among Stroud's top targets in Week 4 against the Cowboys, even if Collins comes back.
