Zaire Mitchell-Paden's week unfolds entirely through Houston's practice squad manoeuvring rather than any report naming him directly. NFL Trade Rumors covered a set of four practice squad moves by the Texans on September 8 and, separately on September 2, the signing of defensive tackle Junior Tafuna to the squad. Pro Football Rumors rounded up league-wide practice squad updates on September 1. Battle Red Blog ran an opinion piece from Kenneth Levy arguing that general manager Nick Caserio's gamble with the roster paid off. Nothing in the coverage specifies Mitchell-Paden's status within those moves, gives an injury update, or signals any change to his role, so anyone following him is left reading Texans transaction news for implications rather than any direct mention.
