Week 15 Houston Texans injury report: Latest on Juice Scruggs, Kenyon Green, Christian Harris, and more

The Houston Texans square off against the Miami Dolphins in Week 15 of the NFL regular season. The Texans are in a prime position to make the playoffs so long as they win the rest of their games. On Sunday, they'll be up against fellow playoff chasers, the Miami Dolphins.

Let's look at a couple of Houston Texans listed on Week 15's injury report ahead of the matchup.

Houston Texans' injury report

Juice Scruggs' injury update

Juice Scruggs will not be on the field against the Dolphins. The center (and guard) is dealing with a foot issue and could not partake in a single training session.

Thus, it was not a surprise when CBS Sports reported that Scruggs would miss the game due to injury. It'll be the offensive lineman's second matchup missed due to him getting hurt in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Expect either Nick Broeker or Kendrick Green to fill the void left by his absence from the Texans O-line.

Kenyon Green's injury update

According to the team website, Kenyon Green is listed as questionable for Sunday. The Houston Texans guard started the week on the injury report due to a shoulder injury.

However, with Green being a limited participant on Wednesday and Thursday and an eventual full session on Friday, it looks like Green will feature against the Dolphins. His presence will be key in an offensive line decimated by injuries all season long.

Christian Harris' injury update

According to CBS Sports, Christian Harris could return to action on Sunday against the Dolphins. The linebacker was a full participant in Friday's session after struggling with a calf issue all week up to that point.

Harris is looking to make his season debut in time to help his side make a genuine playoff push. He got hurt in July and was subsequently added to the injured reserve.

Denico Autry's injury update

According to Pro Football Talk, Denico Autry enters Sunday's game without an injury designation. The defensive end started the week on the injury report due to a knee injury. However, he has made significant progress since then.

Autry logged two full practice sessions to close out the week. He'll now be in a prime position to start a crunch Sunday game against the Mike McDaniel-coached Dolphins.
