Houston Texans safety Jimmie Ward has not yet been cleared to resume football activities as he continues to recover from offseason foot surgery, the team confirmed Tuesday. Ward has resumed running but remains in the rehabilitation phase and is unlikely to participate at the start of training camp, according to reports by Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston.
Ward, 33, missed the final two games of the 2024 regular season and the Texans’ two playoff contests due to the injury, which required surgical intervention. He is likely to begin camp on the active/Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list.
