Horton (knee) was a full participant in Houston's practice Wednesday. Horton missed the Week 9 loss to Denver with a knee injury but is now healthy again. The 25-year-old should return to his role as a reserve defender and special teamer during Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars.

Horton (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos. Horton suffered a knee injury during the Week 8 win over the 49ers and, despite logging a full practice Friday, will be inactive for Sunday's contest. His absence will allow Darrell Taylor and Denico Autry a chance at more rotational snaps with the Texans' defensive line.

Horton suffered a knee injury during Sunday's 26-15 win over the 49ers. The rotational defensive end recorded one solo tackle in the game before leaving in the second half. Horton played more than 20 defensive snaps just twice across the first six games of Houston's season.

Houston opened Horton's (illness) practice window Wednesday. Horton began the regular season on the reserve/non-football illness list. He was diagnosed with Stage 4 Hodgkin's lymphoma last November and was reportedly in remission as of this summer. Horton's return to practice Wednesday is a very positive sign in his recovery, and the opening of his practice window means Houston will have 21 days to activate him to its active roster. The 24-year-old played in 10 games during his rookie campaign last year, totaling 13 tackles (eight solo) and notching a fumble recovery over 169 defensive snaps.

Horton (illness) was placed on the reserve/non-football illness list Tuesday. Horton has been battling an illness since July, and he'll continue to recover as the regular season gets underway.
