The Houston Texans will be down a running back as they play the Tennessee Titans Sunday at noon CT at Nissan Stadium for Week 15
Running back Taiwan Jones, who was listed as questionable and was limited all week in practice with a hamstring injury, was downgraded to out. The 31-year-old will not be making the trip to Nashville.
If there is a silver lining to this information, it is that outside linebacker Brennan Scarlett and receiver Will Fuller are on the flight from Houston to the Music City. Both Scarlett (shoulder) and Fuller (hamstring) were similarly listed as questionable for the game and have also been limited participants in practice. The Texans will decide 90 minutes before kickoff on Sunday whether or not these two players are ready to go against the Titans.
The Titans have already ruled out cornerback Adoree Jackson (foot), receiver Adam Humphries (ankle), and linebacker Daren Bates (shoulder) for the game.
