Fatukasi (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Dallas. Fatukasi injured his foot during the Texans' Week 10 loss to the Lions, which has been severe enough for him to miss practice all week. The 2018 sixth-round pick will work on making his return for Week 11 against Tennessee on Sunday, Nov. 24. Kurt Hinish will join Tim Settle as the Texans' starting defensive tackles Sunday in Fatukasi's absence.

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.

Fatukasi (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Packers. Fatukasi opened the week with back-to-back DNPs due to a shoulder injury, but he will play through it after logging a limited practice session Friday. Through the first six games of the regular season, Fatukasi has logged 16 tackles (10 solo), including 1.0 sacks.

Fatukasi (shoulder) logged a limited practice session Friday and is expected to start Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Fatukasi was held out of the first two practices this week before returning Friday. He's been a regular in the rotation at defensive tackle but was limited to just 18 snaps in last week's win over New England. Through six games played, the interior defensive lineman has 16 tackles and 1.0 sacks.
