Steven Sims: Reverts to practice squad
Sims reverted to Houston's practice squad Monday.
Sims saw playing time on both offense and special teams Sunday and recorded a fair catch his lone punt-return opportunity. The 26-year-old has appeared in two games this season for Houston and is now eligible to be elevated just once more before he'd have to be signed to the active roster.

Texans' Steven Sims: Promoted from practice squad
The Texans elevated Sims to the active roster Saturday.
This is the second time this season that Sims has been elevated. He was active in Week 11 against the Cardinals, when he caught both of his targets for 25 yards while returning two punts for 16 yards. Sims will provide wide receiver depth due to Noah Brown (knee) being ruled out for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Jaguars.

Steven Sims: Reverts to practice squad
Sims reverted to Houston's practice squad Monday.
Sims saw time on both offense and special teams during Sunday's win versus the Cardinals and caught both of his targets for 25 yards, in addition to returning two punts for 16 yards. The 26-year-old could get another opportunity to be called up for the team's upcoming matchup against the Jaguars, as Noah Brown is still dealing with a knee injury.

Texans' Steven Sims: Two targets in win
Sims caught both of his targets for 25 yards and returned two punts for 16 yards in Sunday's 21-16 win over Arizona in Week 11.
Sims made his season debut for the Texans, who were without Noah Brown (knee) , and was targeted on both his offensive snaps. He was one of six active wide receivers, as Houston dressed just two tight ends. Sims, who had one of six C.J. Stroud pass completions that went for more than 20 yards, would need several injuries to move into a position where he could be a fantasy contributor.

Texans' Steven Sims: Elevated for Sunday
The Texans elevated Sims to their active roster Saturday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
With Noah Brown (knee) listed as questionable for Sunday's contest, Sims was likely added to Houston's active roster to ensure depth at wide receiver. The 26-year-old wideout most recently played with the Steelers in 2022, recording 14 catches for 104 yards in 12 appearances.

Steven Sims: Does make practice squad

Steven Sims: Won't make team
Sims was cut by the Texans on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Sims spent the last two seasons with the Steelers operating as a return man and depth receiver, and he was working to earn a similar role in Houston. However, it appears the Texans will opt to go with Mike Boone and Tank Dell in the kick and punt return roles respectively.

Texans' Steven Sims: Signing with Texans
The Texans are signing Sims to a contract Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Sims will join Houston after spending the last two seasons with the Steelers, bursting onto the scene as Pittsburgh's return specialist in 2022. The wide receiver reeled in 14 catches for 104 yards on offense while churning out 539 yards on kick and punt returns last season. Sims will likely operate in a similar role with the Texans in 2023.

Steven Sims: Allowed to hit open market
The Steelers didn't tender an offer to Sims as a restricted free agent Wednesday, Alan Saunders of PittsburghSportsNow.com reports.
Sims played 284 offensive snaps last season, seeing his role grow following the Chase Claypool trade, but he finished the year with just 14 catches for 104 scoreless yards. He'll look to compete for a job on some other team's roster this summer.

Steelers' Steven Sims: Racks up 16 yards in win
Sims rushed once for 16 yards during the Steelers' 28-14 win over the Browns on Sunday.
Sims played at least 34 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps in each of the final nine games of the season, but he saw inconsistent touches and wasn't a reliable fantasy option. Over 12 appearances, he secured 14 of 23 targets for 104 yards while rushing 13 times for 70 yards. He's slated to become a restricted free agent during the offseason, and it's unclear whether he'll be back with the Steelers in 2023. The 25-year-old served as the team's return man down the stretch but is unlikely to carry much fantasy value if he remains in Pittsburgh next year.

Steelers' Steven Sims: Tallies 34 receiving yards
Sims secured three of four targets for 34 yards during the Steelers' 16-13 win over the Ravens on Sunday.
Sims matched his highest target total of the season during Sunday's primetime matchup, and he racked up a season-high 34 yards, highlighted by a 28-yard reception late in the fourth quarter. Although the 25-year-old's production has remained inconsistent, he's now had double-digit yards from scrimmage over the last five games, and he's secured nine of 13 targets for 81 yards while rushing six times for 39 yards during that time.

Steelers' Steven Sims: Logs 29 yards from scrimmage
Sims secured one of two targets for 10 yards while rushing twice for 19 yards during the Steelers' 24-16 win over Carolina on Sunday.
Sims totaled 31 yards during last week's loss to the Ravens and fell just short of that mark against the Panthers, but it was still encouraging to see him slightly more involved in Pittsburgh's offense. He's played at least 43 percent of the team's offensive snaps in three of the last five weeks but remains a lackluster fantasy option at this point.

Steelers' Steven Sims: Tallies four receptions in Week 14
Sims secured all four of his targets for 30 yards while rushing once for one yard during the Steelers' 16-14 loss to Baltimore on Sunday.
Sims had three carries during last week's win over Atlanta, and he logged a season-high five touches during Sunday's narrow loss while also playing a season-high 47 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps. While it's been encouraging to see Sims' playing time increase over the last few weeks, he hasn't been consistent enough to warrant fantasy consideration in most formats.

Steelers' Steven Sims: Logs three carries in win
Sims rushed three times for 19 yards while failing to secure either of his two targets during the Steelers' 19-16 win over Atlanta on Sunday.
Sims averaged a team-high 6.3 yards per carry during Sunday's matchup, but he didn't have enough volume to provide much fantasy value. He's played at least 34 percent of the snaps in the four games following Pittsburgh's Week 9 bye but has had limited touches, as he's secured just three of nine targets for 24 yards while rushing six times for 18 yards during that time.
