Texans, Chargers Injury Reports

Here's the final injury reports released from each team following their third practice of the week.

Houston Texans

OUT – OT Trent Brown (ankle/knee)
QUESTIONABLE –  OT Aireontae Ersery (thumb)
OUT – CB Ajani Carter (hamstring)
OUT – LB Jamal Hill (wrist)
OUT – DE Darrell Taylor (knee)
OUT – WR Justin Watson (calf)

Los Angeles Chargers

QUESTIONABLE – OG Mekhi Becton Sr. (knee)
OUT – WR Derius Davis (ankle)
OUT – RJ Mickens (shoulder)
OUT – OL Jamaree Salyer (hamstring)
OUT– CB Benjamin St-Juste (shoulder)
QUESTIONABLE – DL Teair Tart (groin)
QUESTIONABLE – RB Kimani Vidal (neck)

The Texans have two starters of note in the mix on their injury report, both of those on the offensive line in the form of left tackle Aireontae Ersery and right tackle Trent Brown.

Brown has already been ruled out for the weekend due to a knee/ankle issue, but the rookie Ersery still might have a shot to give it a go. Ersery recently got hand surgery during the week to repair a broken thumb, which initially clouded his hopes of playing, but it looks like there could be a real shot he remains active for the game in Los Angeles.

As for the Chargers, two of their names to keep an eye on reside in the trenches: starting offensive guard Mekhi Becton, who's currently deemed questionable with a knee injury, and starting defensive tackle Teair Tart, who's questionable to suit up with a groin injury.
