The Houston Texans could have right tackle Trent Brown back in his starting spot for Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts after he practiced Thursday. Brown had missed the previous session while listed with wrist and knee injuries.
Brown has started both of Houston’s regular-season games and has recorded eight pressures, four penalties and one sack. The Texans moved him into the starting role after Braden Smith suffered a preseason foot injury and went on injured reserve for the season’s first four weeks. Blake Fisher and Nate Thomas are listed as the other tackle options behind Brown.
Fisher was a second-round pick in 2024, while Thomas joined Houston in a trade during roster cutdowns.
Wide receiver Nico Collins missed his second practice of the week and his fourth consecutive session since his injury. The available report did not provide additional details about his status. Collins’ continued absence comes as Houston prepares for its Week 3 matchup with Indianapolis.
