Blue, Bullough, Dent, Hopkins, Jackson, James, Jones, Joseph, Mercilus, Newton, Simon, Su’a-Filo and Watt are all good to go and probable for Sunday. It’s another week where the Texans are relatively healthy going into their match up.
Houston Texans’ Tidbits:
J.J. Watt:was listed on this week’s injury report after not participating in practice Wednesday and Thursdaybut returning Friday. It’s of no concern that he’s listed and this should be viewed as some well-deserved extra days of rest after an incredible five-tackle (three SOLO), two-sack, seven quarterback hit performance against the New Orleans Saints this past Sunday. It’s important to note that Watt’s sack total (13.5) is more than the Bills’ entire front seven. Outstanding.

Buffalo Bills Tidbits:
Nigel Bradham:Bradham injured his right ankle against the Kansas City Chiefslast week. He had to be taken out of the game and was almost immediately placed into a walking boot.As of three days ago, he was still in that boot, certainly warranting his statusfor this Sunday.Tony Stewardwill start in place of Bradham this Sundayon the line.
John Miller:Miller is still reeling from high ankle sprainsuffered against the New England Patriots in Week 12.He hasn’t been able to practice and it’s likelyhe’ll miss a couple of weeks as a result. ExpectKraig Urbikto fill-in for him as he did so last week.
Seantrel Henderson:Henderson has been out most of the week with an illness and Rex Ryan saidhe’s “very doubtful” for Sunday. ExpectJordan Millsto start in his stead Sunday.
