The Houston Texans have lost running back Woody Marks to a foot injury in Week 13 against the Indianapolis Colts. Marks suffered the injury in the first quarter after three rushing attempts. He had zero yards gained at the time of the injury. The team announced he is questionable to return.

Marks had emerged as the team’s starting running back ahead of long-time veteran Nick Chubb. The fourth round pick led the team in rushing yards the past three weeks and five of the past eight weeks. He was averaging 3.7 yards per carry and also had 185 receiving yards on the season.

Chubb has three carries for 18 yards and will take back over the starting role in Marks’s absence.
