The Texans will be without at least one of their top edge rushers for Sunday’s game against the Browns.
There’s a chance both will not be able to play.
Houston has listed defensive end Danielle Hunter (hamstring) as out and Will Anderson Jr. (ankle) as questionable for the contest.
Hunter and Anderson were both limited on Thursday and did not participate on Friday. That Anderson is questionable and Hunter has been ruled out suggests Hunter’s injury is more significant.
There are a few more players who have been ruled out for Houston: linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair (groin/personal), receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (hamstring), tight end Brevin Jordan (finger/foot), and offensive lineman Keylan Rutledge (neck/shoulder).
Aside from Anderson, offensive tackle Trent Brown (illness/wrist), guard Wyatt Teller (back/illness), linebacker Jacob Hummel (groin), cornerback Jaylin Smith (hamstring), and running back David Montgomery (groin) are questionable.
Safety Reed Blankenship (concussion/hand), receiver Tank Dell (hand/shoulder), offensive tackle Blake Fisher (thumb), defensive tackle Tommy Togiai (elbow/shoulder), and running back Woody Marks (knee) are all off the injury report and are set to play.
