Terrence Brooks - Designated for return Brooks (chest) was designated to return from IR on Monday.

Impact Brooks has been out since Week 6 against the Colts, when he picked up the injury. Primarily used on special teams, Brooks will now be able to hit the practice field and try to be ready for Week 11 against the Titans. If not, the Texans still have a 21-day window to move him to the active roster.

Laremy Tunsil - Nearing return Tunsil (thumb) had his cast removed, but head coach David Culley was noncommittal on when Tunsil would return, Aaron Wilson of Sports Talk 790 AM reports.

Impact Tunsil had surgery on his thumb in mid-October and was expected to miss four-to-six weeks, which puts this week right in the middle of that timeline. The removal of the cast certainly gets him another step closer to returning to the field. The Texans are likely anxious to get their star tackle back on the field, possibly as soon as this week, but with a 1-8 record they're likely not to rush him either.

Neville Hewitt - Stars in first start Hewitt notched 10 tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 17-9 loss to the Dolphins.

Impact Christian Kirksey (thumb) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, which allowed Hewitt to step into the starting role. He did not disappoint, as he notched a team-high 10 tackles. The 28-year-old linebacker will likely be worth IDP consideration while Kirksey is sidelined.

Jordan Jenkins - Registers first sack of season Jenkins registered four tackles (two solo) and 1.5 sacks during Sunday's 17-9 loss to the Dolphins.

Impact Through seven games this season, Jenkins has totaled 16 tackles and 1.5 sacks, but a large portion of that production came Sunday. The 27-year-old defensive end likely won't be a viable IDP option when the Texans return from their Week 10 bye to face the Titans.

Scottie Phillips - May not be done for season Phillips (ankle) has a chance to retake the field this season, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

Impact Phillips is reportedly dealing with a high-ankle sprain. The Texans officially listed the running back with a leg injury when placing him on IR on Tuesday. Across three appearances with the Texans this season, Phillips has handled just six carries and drawn three targets.

Scottie Phillips - Placed on IR The Texans placed Phillips (leg) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Impact Phillips had seen his role out of the Houston backfield increase over the past two weeks following the trade of Mark Ingram to the Saints. After he was active just once over the first seven weeks of the season, Phillips logged 19 snaps on offense between Weeks 8 and 9 and carried six times for 13 yards. He picked up the leg injury in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, and the Texans determined it was serious enough to keep him sidelined for at least their next three games. Phillips won't be eligible to return to the 53-man roster until the Texans' Week 14 matchup with the Seahawks on Dec. 12.
