The Texans lengthy injury list for Week 5 against the 49ers belies the fact that the team is largely healthy heading into Sunday's game. For instance, of the eight players on the defensive side of the ball listed on the injury report, all but one are considered probable.
The eight players expected to play through injuries in Week 5 are: defensive end J.J. Watt (groin, nose); defensive backs Ed Reed (hip, abdomen), Eddie Pleasant (hamstring), Johnathan Joseph (not-injury-related) and Brice McCain (knee); and linebackers Bryan Braman (hamstring, shoulder) and Brian Cushing (concussion).
