DECEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

DECEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Ready for Sunday Fatukasi (foot) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.

Impact The 29-year-old defensive lineman has missed the Texans' last three games due to a foot injury sustained in early November. However, he practiced in full Friday after opening the week with consecutive limited sessions, so it appears he's moved past the issue in time to suit up in Week 15. Expect Fatukasi to serve as one of the Texans' starting defensive tackles in his return Sunday.

DECEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play against Jacksonville Fatukasi (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Impact Fatukasi suffered a foot injury in Week 10 against the Lions, and he has not been able to practice since the injury. With Fatukasi missing his third straight game, Mario Edwards will likely serve as Houston's second starting defensive tackle Sunday alongside Tim Settle.

NOVEMBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

DNP with foot injury Fatukasi (foot) did not practice Wednesday.

NOVEMBER 27 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Sunday Fatukasi (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Titans.

Impact The 29-year-old missed the Texans' Week 11 win over the Cowboys and was unable to practice all week due to a foot injury, so it's no surprise he won't be suiting up Sunday. Expect Mario Edwards to see additional work with Houston's first-team defensive line in Fatukasi's stead in Week 12.

NOVEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Estimated as DNP Fatukasi (foot) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimation.

Impact Fatukasi was sidelined for the Texans' Week 11 win over the Cowboys on Monday night after sustaining a foot injury the week prior, and Wednesday's estimated DNP suggests he could be in jeopardy of missing even more time. If the veteran defensive lineman cannot upgrade to at least limited participation either Thursday or Friday, he'll likely miss Houston's divisional matchup against the Titans in Week 12.

NOVEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Week 11 Fatukasi (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Dallas.

Impact Fatukasi injured his foot during the Texans' Week 10 loss to the Lions, which has been severe enough for him to miss practice all week. The 2018 sixth-round pick will work on making his return for Week 11 against Tennessee on Sunday, Nov. 24. Kurt Hinish will join Tim Settle as the Texans' starting defensive tackles Sunday in Fatukasi's absence.

NOVEMBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

DNP on Thursday Fatukasi (foot) did not practice Thursday, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Fatukasi was knocked out of Sunday's game against the Lions due to a foot injury. He'll have two more chances to return to practice ahead of Monday night's game against Dallas. If Fatukasi is unable to play, Kurt Hinish would likely start at defensive tackle Monday alongside Tim Settle.

NOVEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Done for rest of Sunday night Fatukasi (foot) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday night's contest against the Lions, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Fatukasi suffered a foot injury in the second half of Sunday's game and he'll be forced to miss the remainder of team's matchup with Detroit. In the meantime, Kurt Hinish will continue to see additional snaps at defensive tackle in Fatukasi's absence.

NOVEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Active Sunday night Fatukasi (groin/shoulder) is active for Sunday night's matchup with the Lions.

Impact The starting defensive tackle was listed as questionable on Friday's injury report after missing practice all week. Fatukasi likely sustained the injury during Houston's Week 9 loss to the Jets, but it does not appear to be serious enough to force him to miss Week 10. Fatukasi has 21 tackles (14 solo), including 1.0 sacks, this season.

NOVEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Could play in Week 10 Fatukasi (groin/shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lions.

Impact Fatukasi hasn't practiced since likely sustaining a groin injury in the Texans' Week 9 loss to the Jets; however, Friday's injury report suggests he still has a chance to suit up Sunday. If the veteran defensive tackle can't play through the pain in Week 10, expect Kurt Hinish to see increased work with Houston's first-team defense.

NOVEMBER 8 • ROTOWIRE

Opens week as DNP Fatukasi (groin) didn't practice Wednesday.

Impact Fatukasi played 30 defensive snaps and recorded two total tackles in the Texans' Week 9 loss to the Jets, but it now appears he picked up a groin injury in the process.

Questionable for Week 18 Fatukasi (ankle) has been questionable to play ahead of Saturday's game versus the Titans.

Impact Fatukasi sustained an ankle injury during the Week 15 win over Dallas, leaving him sidelined for one game before suiting back up for last Sunday's victory versus Houston. However, the 318-pounder remained limited in each practice during Week 18 prep, so there's a chance he could be sidelined for this pivotal regular-season finale. It be worth monitoring Tatukasi's status on Jacksonville's final inactives list released 90 minutes ahead of Saturday's 8:15 pm E.T. kickoff.
