Houston Texans: Week one vs. the Patriots will be a nail biting affair
2. Will we actually see Keke Coutee on Sunday?
This is a player many fans have been waiting to see play. Keke Coutee has yet to play a single snap in the NFL since he was out due to injury in the preseason. The potential for him here is enormous, he could be the first true slot receiver the Houston Texans ever had.
This kid is absolutely lights out when he has the ball in his hands and I’m sure my Texas Tech fans here can confirm that. He was selected to be this teams future slot WR in the 2018 draft, a role this team has really needed so desperately to be solid. He allowed the Texans to move on from draft bust Braxton Miller.

As I mentioned earlier, he missed the vast majority of the preseason, practice included with a hamstring injury. After the hype he received up to this point, it was a slight disappointment that we didn’t get to see him play.
Right now, he is listed as questionable. But, I think he will play Sunday and will be the first game we will see Coutee play in a Texans uniform. He is slated to start the game backing up Bruce Ellington in the slot. However, it shouldn’t take him too long to overtake Ellington. Hopefully, this is the start of a long, productive career from the slot for the Texans.
