The Facts: After Coutee’s NFL debut in Week 4 last season, the Texans were hopeful they’d finally found their slot receiver. In the Texans’ overtime victory over the Indianapolis Colts, Coutee caught 11 passes for 109 yards. Those 11 receptions were the most by a receiver making his NFL debut since 1970. But because of hamstring injuries, Coutee played in just five more regular-season games and caught 17 passes the rest of the way. In an effort to be on the field as much as he can next season, Coutee spent the offseason getting his body “to the way it’s supposed to be."

Diehards Line: Coutee explained that he did that with a lot of stretching and soft-tissue work, “flushing out my body just to get that old scarring tissue out of there.” QB Deshaun Watson said he can tell Coutee “has a lot more confidence in himself and what he’s doing whenever he steps on the field.” While Coutee is still working on learning the ever-growing playbook, receiver DeAndre Hopkins said he has seen “a tremendous growth” in Coutee's knowledge of the game. If Coutee can stay healthy, he believes he and the Texans’ receiving corps can be “very dangerous” for opposing defenses. And he would be correct.
