The Houston Texans are set to travel up to Foxborough to take on the New England Patriots in the final game of the NFL's Divisional round. Heading into their game on Sunday, both the Texans and Patriots are relatively healthy.
For the Texans, the only player that sat out of practice on Wednesday, defensive back Alan Ball, returned to practice on Thursday, although, he was limited with a foot injury. Most players practiced fully, with an exception of a few, including tight end Owen Daniels and guard Antoine Caldwell.

The Wildcard round brought us some pretty bad games. The marque quarterbacks were on a bye so this week should be a lot better.
Here are the quarterbacks and how they stack-up
