Fatukasi (ankle) did not practice Thursday and has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Chiefs. Fatukasi injured his ankle during the first half of the Texans' 20-12 win over the Dolphins this past Sunday. The injury prevented him from participating in practice all week, and his next opportunity to play will be Christmas Day against the Ravens. Tim Settle, Mario Edwards and Tommy Togiai will all see increased snaps at defensive tackle Saturday due to Fatukasi's injury.

Fatukasi (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Fatukasi suffered a foot injury in Week 10 against the Lions, and he has not been able to practice since the injury. With Fatukasi missing his third straight game, Mario Edwards will likely serve as Houston's second starting defensive tackle Sunday alongside Tim Settle.

Fatukasi (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Titans. The 29-year-old missed the Texans' Week 11 win over the Cowboys and was unable to practice all week due to a foot injury, so it's no surprise he won't be suiting up Sunday. Expect Mario Edwards to see additional work with Houston's first-team defensive line in Fatukasi's stead in Week 12.

Fatukasi (groin/shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lions. Fatukasi hasn't practiced since likely sustaining a groin injury in the Texans' Week 9 loss to the Jets; however, Friday's injury report suggests he still has a chance to suit up Sunday. If the veteran defensive tackle can't play through the issue in Week 10, expect Kurt Hinish to see increased work with Houston's first-team defense.

Fatukasi (groin) didn't practice Wednesday. Fatukasi played 30 defensive snaps and recorded two total tackles in the Texans' Week 9 loss to the Jets, but it now appears he picked up a groin injury in the process. The veteran defensive tackle could be in jeopardy of missing Sunday's matchup against the Lions if he's unable to practice in a limited fashion either Thursday or Friday.
