Hightower (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans.
Hightower was able to practice on a limited basis all week, a normal indication that the player would be able to suit up on a given week. However, that rule doesn't necessarily apply to the Patriots. The former first-round pick was able to practice on a limited basis somewhat last week, but the team opted to rest their star linebacker to preserve his health heading into the postseason. It seems like IDP owners should expect more of the same uncertainty heading into this week's matchup against the Texans.
