Texans Remove Woody Marks From Injury Report, Rookie RB Set to Face Chargers

His return reshapes the rushing rotation as Houston pursues a playoff-clinching victory.

Overview

  • Marks practiced fully all week and was taken off Houston's final injury report, indicating he is expected to play in Week 17.
  • He missed Week 16 after an ankle injury in Week 15 but had no reported practice limitations leading into Saturday.
  • Reports project Marks to resume lead-back duties, with Nick Chubb shifting to a secondary role and Jawhar Jordan likely seeing reduced snaps.
  • Some outlets note Jordan may hold the RB2 role over Chubb, though both are expected to work behind Marks.
  • Houston can clinch a postseason berth with a win, while fantasy guidance labels Marks a fringe RB3 against a Chargers defense tough on running backs.
