Texans Could Face Colts Without Starting DB

The Houston Texans have officially completed their second of three practices for the week before taking on Week 18 vs. the Indianapolis Colts, and one of their starting cornerbacks, Kamari Lassiter, wound up missing his second practice in a row, and could be in danger of missing the action if he misses a third.

Here's the full injury report from the Texans' second practice of the week before taking on the Colts:

Lassiter's attendance has remained perfect during the 2025 season thus far, but could have a chance to miss the final game of the year against the Colts if the Texans want to give one of their best defenders a week of rest before the playoffs get underway.

Lassiter came out in the middle of the Texans' last game vs. the Los Angeles Chargers, but would end up finishing the game en route to Houston's 20-16 victory. His status during their third practice of the week could be a real tell of whether he'll be good to go against Indianapolis.
