The Houston Texans (10-7) are hosting the Cleveland Browns (11-6) for the wildcard round of the AFC playoffs this week.
And a star Browns player whose status was up in the air seems to have announced that he will be active via his personal X (formerly known as Twitter) account.
This was later confirmed by NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, who responded to Ward's post.
The Texans will be looking for revenge after losing their Week 16 matchup with the Browns 36-22. The Texans were without their star rookie QB, C.J. Stroud, in that matchup.
With the Texans WR core dealing with multiple injuries, Ward being available to cover Nico Collins. Collins didn't struggle in Week 18 when he was the only reliable WR available for the Texans, as he exploded for 195 yards and a touchdown.
Watching Ward and Collins go to war this week will be a crucial matchup to watch for both teams. For the Texans specifically, it feels like the matchup that can win or lose them this game.
