Barnett (shoulder) is active Sunday against the Patriots. Barnett closed the week with a full practice, paving the way for him to suit up in Week 6 and make his return after a one-week absence. The Tennessee product should fill a rotational role on the Texans' defensive line in New England.

Barnett (shoulder) is questionable for Houston's Week 6 matchup against the Patriots after logging a full practice Friday. Barnett logged a full practice after a DNP on Wednesday and a limited practice Thursday. The 6-foot-3 defensive end sat out last week against the Bills, but his hiatus may cap at one game if he's able to suit up Sunday when the Texans travel to New England.

Barnett (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bills. Barnett likely sustained his shoulder injury during the Texans' Week 4 win over the Jaguars, and he was unable to practice all week. With both Barnett and Jerry Hughes (hip) missing Houston's Week 5 contest, expect Rashad Weaver to serve as the team's top rotational edge rusher.
-
Barnett (ankle) was waived by the Eagles on Friday. Barnett missed the team's previous two games due to personal reasons. All 73 of Barnett's NFL appearances have come with Philadelphia, but Barnett's decline in production, due in part to the pectoral injury he suffered last season, has led to the Eagles parting ways with him. With three seasons of five-plus sacks under his belt, the 27-year-old defensive end will likely draw some interest from other teams around the league.
-
Barnett (knee) has been participating in team drills at practice, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports. Barnett is returning from an ACL tear suffered in Week 1 of last season. While he was present during June OTAs, he was not a full participant. His presence during team drills now indicates he will be ready when the season kicks off. He is projected to provide depth at defensive end this season.
