Overview
- Woody Marks practiced in full on Friday, carries no injury designation for Week 15, and is expected to play through a knee issue.
- Adam Schefter reports Nick Chubb is not expected to play after suffering a rib injury against the Chiefs; he logged a limited practice Friday and was listed as questionable.
- Houston is set to rely on Marks with support from depth options such as Dare Ogunbowale, who took over after Chubb exited last week and scored the deciding touchdown.
- The Texans enter the matchup 8-5 on a five-game winning streak, and a victory would make them a 99 percent favorite to reach the AFC playoffs, according to reporting.
- Marks, a USC rookie with nine starts, has 554 rushing yards on 160 carries, 196 receiving yards on 20 catches, and five total touchdowns this season.
