Settle (calf) was not listed on the Texans' injury report Tuesday.
Settle tweaked his calf during Sunday's win over the Colts, but it doesn't appear to be a serious issue as he was able to practice without limitations Tuesday. Barring any setbacks, the 2018 fifth-round pick should be able to suit up against the Jets on Thursday night. Settle is on a two-game sack streak, and through the first eight games of the regular season he has accumulated 14 tackles (13 solo), including 4.0 sacks.

Texans' Tim Settle: Dealing with calf injury
Rotowire
Settle injured his calf in Sunday's Week 8 matchup against Indianapolis and is questionable to return.
Settle had a good game going prior to getting hurt, notching a team-high three tackles, including 1.0 sacks. The defensive tackle has maintained a steady workload throughout the campaign, logging over half of the Texans' defensive snaps every week since Week 3. Kurt Hinish could be called upon to absorb Settle's snaps if the latter isn't able to return following halftime.

Texans' Tim Settle: Headed to Houston
Rotowire
The Texans signed Settle to a two-year deal worth up to $7 million Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
After spending the first six years of his career with the Commanders and Bills, the 26-year-old defensive lineman is headed to Houston. Across Settle's two seasons with the Bills, he appeared in 32 games and recorded 33 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, while also defending one pass. The Virginia Tech product is expected to have the chance to compete for a solid role on the Texans' defensive line, especially with the departure of Sheldon Rankins this offseason.

Bills' Tim Settle: Back to work after missing Week 2
Rotowire
Settle (calf) has been able to practice on a limited basis the past two days.
Settle missed the Week 2 win over Tennessee after making a one-tackle debut for the Bills in Week 1, a game where he saw 42 percent of the defensive snaps. He's a depth guy for now, but with the defense so banged up heading into an important divisional game, any healthy body that can provide capable play will go a long way.

Bills' Tim Settle: Listed as doubtful for Week 2
Rotowire
Settle (calf) is doubtful for Monday's contest against the Titans.
Settle didn't practice Thursday or Friday but returned in a limited fashion Saturday. However, he's still unlikely to suit up Monday. With Ed Oliver (ankle) already ruled out, the Bills may be a bit thin at defensive tackle for their matchup with Derrick Henry.

Rotowire
Settle missed practice for the second straight day Tuesday due to a groin injury, Grace Heidinger of the Bills' official site reports.

Football Team's Tim Settle: Ready to play Week 15
Rotowire
Settle (illness) cleared protocols and was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Tuesday's game against the Eagles, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Settle tested positive for COVID-19 exactly one week ago and would have been in line to sit out against Philadelphia had the game been played Sunday, but the NFL's decision to push the contest back two days provided sufficient time for him to clear protocols. He'll likely fill a depth role along the Washington defensive line Tuesday.

Redskins' Tim Settle: Leaves with injury
Rotowire
Settle was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Bills with a hamstring injury.
Settle plays in a reserve role, but his depth is important considering the Redskins only have four healthy defensive linemen when he's out. If the second-year pro is unable to return to the contest, he'll benefit from Week 10's bye and look to return Week 11 against the Jets.

Rotowire
Settle (knee) isn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.
Settle sustained the injury during the second preseason game versus the Bengals, but he has no practice restrictions on the first official injury report of the season. The 22-year-old should work in a reserve role at nose tackle behind Daron Payne.
