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 (foot) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimation. Fatukasi was sidelined for the Texans' Week 11 win over the Cowboys on Monday night after sustaining a foot injury the week prior, and Wednesday's estimated DNP suggests he could be in jeopardy of missing even more time. If the veteran defensive lineman cannot upgrade to at least limited participation either Thursday or Friday, he'll likely miss Houston's divisional matchup against the Titans 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.

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.
