• Texans' David Montgomery: Will miss Sunday's game

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  While Montgomery (groin) has made some progress, coach DeMeco Ryans noted Wednesday that the running back will remain out for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports. Montgomery missed Houston's last two games before the team's Week 8 bye, and now he won't return to the lineup any sooner than Nov. 15, when the Texans face the Browns on the road. With Montgomery still out, Woody Marks is poised to maintain his lead backfield role, an assignment that resulted in him logging a season-high 19 carried for 66 yards and one catch for 15 yards in a Week 7 overtime loss to the Giants.

• Texans' David Montgomery: Not seen at practice

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Montgomery (groin) wasn't present for the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports. Montgomery missed the Texans' two games before a Week 8 bye due to a groin issue, and his status remains up in the air as the team prepares for Sunday's contest at the Chargers. He hasn't practiced since sustaining the injury Oct. 11 at Tennessee, meaning he likely will need to mix into drills Thursday and/or Friday to have a chance to suit up this weekend.

• Texans' David Montgomery: Status uncertain for Week 9

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said Monday that he has "no significant update" on the status of Montgomery (groin) heading into a Week 9 matchup with the Chargers, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports. Prior to the Texans' Week 8 bye, Montgomery missed two straight games due to a groin injury and wasn't able to practice in advance of either of those contests. Ryans didn't offer much of an indication that Montgomery's condition has improved following the bye, with the coach noting that the running back will be evaluated throughout the week before a decision is made on his status for Sunday's contest. If Montgomery ends up being sidelined for a third consecutive contest, Woody Marks would be in store for another turn as Houston's lead back.

• Texans' David Montgomery: Will miss Week 7

  Montgomery (groin) will not play Sunday against the Giants, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Montgomery will miss a second straight game, and with Jawhar Jordan (quadriceps) injured on the practice squad after he was elevated for Week 6, the Texans will ride Woody Marks and special-teamer Dare Ogunbowale out of the backfield, with Marks likely to see virtually every meaningful carry versus New York.

• Texans' David Montgomery: Not practicing Thursday

  Montgomery (groin) isn't practicing Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Wilson adds that Montgomery is expected to miss Sunday's game against the Giants, though that may just be conjecture from Wilson at this point. In any event, Montgomery's chances of suiting up look slim at best, as he has yet to practice since exiting during Houston's Week 5 win over the Titans. Woody Marks started in Montgomery's absence against the Jaguars in Week 6, and Marks is poised to lead the backfield again Sunday, with Dare Ogunbowale likely to fill a change-of-pace role and Jawhar Jordan (quadriceps) no longer a candidate to be elevated from the practice squad due to the latter's placement on the practice squad injured list.
