2026 Fantasy Outlook
Whittington signed with the Texans in May as an undrafted free agent out of Oregon. He had 129 carries for 829 yards and six touchdowns, as well as 19 catches for 98 yards with the Ducks in 2025. The 5-8, 205-pound running back is fighting an uphill battle to make the roster, much less push David Montgomery or Woody Marks for a role on offense, but Whittington could land a spot on Houston's practice squad.

Released by the Texans in August of 2026.The Texans placed Whittington (quadriceps) on the practice-squad injured list Thursday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Whittington suffered a torn quad during practice this week, and while the move to the injured list will prevent him from being eligible for elevation for four weeks, the rookie could be sidelined for longer. Whittington linked up with Houston as an undrafted free agent in early May following a strong senior season with Oregon.
