Lands on IR
Pierre-Louis (groin) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Pierre-Louis suffered the injury in the Texans' 16-9 loss to the Broncos on Sunday. Although he was able to limp off of the field, he ultimately was carted to the locker room from the sideline. With the move to IR, Pierre-Louis is guaranteed to miss at least the next four games, with a return Week 8 against the Titans being the first game he'll be eligible to play. In Pierre-Louis' absence, Blake Cashman may take over the former's minimal role.

Shifts to reserve/COVID-19 list
Pierre-Louis was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday after testing positive for the virus.
Analysis: Pierre-Louis is in danger of being sidelined for the second time in the last four games, as he's unlikely to clear the NFL's COVID-19 return-to-play protocol in advance of Sunday's contest against San Francisco. He's played primarily on special teams this season, so his absence likely wouldn't have a significant effect on Houston's defense.

He's bounced around several teams of late but served a key role in the Washington Football Team's defense by logging 505 snaps in 2020.

Cools down after strong start
Pierre-Louis started 11 of his 13 games in 2020, recording 56 tackles (36 solo), two pass defenses, one sack and one forced fumble.
Analysis: Pierre-Louis opened the year in a three-down role, piling up 20 tackles on 142 snaps over the first two weeks of the season. He kept his job in Washington's base defense for most of the year, but it was Cole Holcomb who got most of the nickel work alongside Jon Bostic in the second half of the season. Among the three, only Pierre-Louis is scheduled for free agency during the upcoming offseason. Regardless of where he signs, the 29-year-old journeyman linebacker isn't likely to relive his brief…read more

Analysis: The linebacker picked up the ankle injury during Week 14's matchup against San Francisco and missed last week's game against Seattle.

All clear Thursday
Pierre-Louis (shoulder) was a full participant during Thursday's practice, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Pierre-Louis was limited during Wednesday's practice, but the fact that he was upgraded so quickly is evidence that the team may have been managing his practice reps during the week.

Leads team in tackles
Pierre-Louis had 15 tackles (10 solo) and a forced fumble in Sunday's 30-15 loss to Arizona.
Analysis: A backup and special teams player throughout most of his career, Pierre-Louis now finds himself in a three-down role, playing 98 percent of Washington's defensive snaps through the first two weeks of the season. He only had four tackles (three) in the season opener, but the playing time led to a huge stat line Week 2.

Headed to Washington
Pierre-Louis and the Redskins agreed to terms on a one-year contract worth up to $3.45 million Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Pierre-Louis was an underrated asset for the Bears last season on both defense and special teams. In 14 games, the 28-year-old racked up 37 tackles (27 solo) and an interception across 491 total snaps. It's unclear whether Pierre-Louis will find a more prominent role on defense for Washington or remain a depth player.

Posts first interception of career
Pierre-Louis intercepted a pass and collected six tackles in the Bears' 21-19 victory over the Vikings in Week 17, and he finished the season with 37 tackles and an interception.
Analysis: Pierre-Louis just completed his sixth year of NFL service, and the Bears were his fourth team over the past four seasons. He'll go into the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, and he'll likely continue to function as a rotational player but he won't likely be one to count on in fantasy leagues.

Fills in well for Smith
Pierre-Louis recorded six stops in the Bears' 31-24 win over the Cowboys on Thursday.
Analysis: After Roquan Smith left the game with a pectoral injury, Pierre-Louis filled in with a solid effort in his first extended action of the season. With Smith possibly having suffered a torn pectoral, Pierre-Louis could serve as an adequate IDP option in leagues that have very little available on the waiver wire.
