It appears as if the Houston Texans avoided disaster. Quarterback Deshaun Watson, who suffered an unknown ankle injury against the Baltimore Ravens, was a participant in Texans’ Tuesday practice, per Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle.

The Texans listed Watson as a full participant in their Monday walkthrough. Houston hosts the division rival Indianapolis Colts on Thursday, needing a win to regain the often flip-flopping crown of the AFC South.
After losing to the Ravens 41-7, Watson proclaimed his well-being, saying: “I’m fine. Healthy and ready to go Thursday.”
Watson suffered the injury in the second quarter of the loss. Ravens edge rusher Jaylon Ferguson fell on top of his ankle, causing it to contort in an awkward angle. However, after a few moments, the third-year quarterback propped himself back up and hasn’t acknowledged it since.
With Watson’s ankle injury appearing to be minor, the Texans will have him good to go against the Colts on Thursday.
