Woody Marks - Not practicing Thursday Marks (ankle) wasn't spotted at practice Thursday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Marks also logged a 'DNP' on Wednesday, which clouds his status for Sunday's game against the Raiders. If he ends up limited or out this weekend, Nick Chubb (ribs, limited Wednesday) -- if available -- and Jawhar Jordan would be in line to see added backfield snaps in Week 16.

Derek Stingley Jr. - Nursing oblique injury Stingley (oblique) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Impact Stingley played fewer defensive snaps (55) than normally would have been expected in Week 15, but that could have been partly because of the lopsided nature of the contest. His activity at practice will be worth monitoring as the week continues leading up to Sunday's game versus the Raiders.

E.J. Speed - Doesn't practice Wednesday Speed (knee) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Impact Speed was sidelined in Week 15 versus the Cardinals because of a knee injury, and now he's in danger of missing a second straight game. If he can't get back on the practice field Thursday or Friday, he'll likely miss Sunday's game versus the Raiders.

Sheldon Rankins - Tending to knee injury Rankins (knee) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Impact Rankins played a healthy share of defensive snaps (41) in Week 15 versus the Cardinals, but it seems like he might have hurt his knee somewhere along the way. He'll probably have to return to practice Thursday or Friday to have any chance of suiting up in Week 16 versus the Raiders.

20 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Kamari Lassiter - Still dealing with foot injury Lassiter (foot) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Impact Lassiter has played through the problem with his foot for the past few weeks, so it's likely Houston is just being cautious with its ascendent talent at cornerback. He'll get two more chances to practice before the Texans release their final practice report of the week Friday.

Azeez Al-Shaair - Sits out practice Wednesday Al-Shaair (ankle/knee) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Impact Al-Shaair played 65 defensive snaps in Week 15 versus the Cardinals, and it's not immediately clear when he suffered any injury. He'll have two more opportunities to practice before Houston publishes its last practice report of the week Friday.

Nick Chubb - Limited in return to practice Chubb (ribs) was a limited participant Wednesday in his return to practice.

Impact Fellow Texans running back Woody Marks (ankle) was a non-participant after his early exit from Sunday's 40-20 win over Arizona. Chubb was inactive for the contest but now appears on track to return for Sunday's game against Las Vegas, with his role largely depending on Marks' health. Jawhar Jordan ran for 101 yards this past Sunday, doing most of his damage in the second half after Marks left early. Coach Demeco Ryans said afterward that Marks could've returned if the game had been closer.
