Who is out for the Houston Texans in Week 8’s showdown against the Indianapolis Colts?
Surprisingly, no one surprising.
Six players were listed inactive for Sunday’s AFC South showdown, including linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair and Henry To’oTo’o. Defensive back Jimmie Ward was out for the third straight week with a groin injury.

Nickel defender Myles Bryant, offensive lineman Nick Broeker and receiver Steven Sims also were ruled out.
Sims has been dealing with a back injury and missed a game earlier this month. Bryant and Broeker were healthy scratches for the 46-man cutdown.
Al-Shaair and Ward were ruled out earlier this week but To’oTo’o was expected to be a game-time decision after returning to practice from his concussion.
The Texans have a short week ahead with a road trip to New York to take on the Jets on Thursday Night Football, so To’oTo’o could be cleared before kickoff.
With a win, Houston will secure a .500 or better season in division play. The Texans would also improve to 6-2, marking their best start since 2012.
