The do-it-all running back for Houston was a late addition to the injury report this week, clouding his status for the weekend matchup in Kansas City. The Texans already have dealt with plenty of issues at the receiver spot this season, only adding more to Mixon's plate.

If the Texans are going to take out the Chiefs, they need running back Joe Mixon to take it up a notch. That might be a challenge. He’s questionable for Saturday’s game with an ankle injury. The injury apparently happened at practice on Wednesday, since he wasn’t on Tuesday’s report. And he didn’t practice at all on Thursday.
