He can't just "come back" for the playoffs. He has to come back on the active roster by week 11 or get put on season ending IR.
So from Week 1 to Week 11 he has 11 weeks to get healthy. (I have no idea how far Houston is in being healthy I just wanted to clarify for people that think he can just show up Week 17 and party.) |
Andy Reid on Charles and Houston

Would put him back around 9 months after surgery. Knowing absolutely nothing about the progression of his recovery, I'd say that sounds reasonable. |
A year from now, Houston will be day-to-day.

If Houston hits any snag I'd imagine the Chiefs have something up their sleeve at the trade deadline for any extra pass rush help. |
I didnt know that, thanks for the info mcaj22... at least there is a firm date to mark down

Every team thinks they're one offseason away from a Super Bowl and there isn't going to be a single team that's willing to trade away a game changing pass rusher. |

But if Houston never comes back they're going to need more than Dee Ford. Hali will be well worn down by the playoffs. |

What is this????? I, as well as many others, was scoffed at for not believing that he would be back week 1 as a few on here were ADAMANT that he would be because a couple of other players had done it, so be damned if Houston should not be able to do the same. :rolleyes:

It's not like it's full snaps or nothing. The team just has to make a decision about full IR at that time. It's a roster decision week 11 not necessarily a 'play' decision |
I heard basically the same thing from Reid and Dorsey on the NFL Radio training camp stop with the Chiefs. Was pretty much "Tamba and Jamaal will be back soon...but who knows if Justin will be back this season - gee, we sure hope so..."
Reading between the lines it sounds like Houston is out for the year. This combined with losing Sean Smith leads me to believe that the Chiefs defense will be middle-of-the-pack this year. Hopefully, the offense starts clicking. |
