Woody Marks rushed a career-high 19 times for 64 yards and caught his only target for 3 yards in Houston's 20-16 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. Marks briefly exited the game with a foot injury but returned to play 41 of the Texans' 76 snaps (54%).

One week after scoring 26 unanswered points in a come-from-behind victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Texans' offense had a sluggish day against the AFC South's last-place team. However, one positive takeaway from Houston's unimpressive outing was Woody Marks' second-straight game being utilized as the team's featured back. Marks played 65.7% of Houston's snaps and commanded 18 of the Texans 21 RB carries in their 16-13 vicotry.

Texans RB Nick Chubb (foot) is not listed on the final injury report after putting in a full practice on Friday. He should be ready for his usual committee role alongside RB Woody Marks in this weekend’s game vs. the Jaguars.

Chubb's absence vs. the Jaguars this weekend would boost RB Woody Marks' fantasy value and make him a strong RB2 play.

Texans RB Woody Marks was added to the injury report with a calf and limited in Thursday's practice. That likely means the calf started giving him trouble today. We'll look for further updates on the rookie and see if he's able to practice tomorrow. Marks' absence would boost RB Nick Chubb's Week 9 fantasy value.

Texans rookie RB Woody Marks trailed teammate Nick Chubb in carries for Sunday's win over the 49ers, but the rookie led in just about every other category. Marks took his 11 carries for 62 yards (5.6 per rush), compared with Chubb's 17 attempts for 56 yards (3.3 per rush). Marks also claimed four of the seven backfield targets, catching all four for 49 yards. Chubb caught both of his targets for 13 yards.

Texans GM Nick Caserio said Tuesday that RB Joe Mixon is "making progress" with his ankle injury. "Over the next few weeks, we’ll have a better idea," Caserio added. It's the first positive report we've heard on Mixon since July. Fantasy managers still should not be counting on Mixon this season, but it at least sounds like there's a chance we see him on the field at some point. That would complicate matters for RBs Woody Marks and Nick Chubb.

Texans RBs Nick Chubb and Woody Marks split their snaps pretty evenly on Sunday. Chubb had 24 snaps with 9 routes run while Marks had 27 snaps with 13 routes won. Chubb ultimately ended with the better fantasy day rushing with 11-61-1. Marks day ended up as only 7-24-0. Neither player caught their lone target.

That included running 19 routes to Chubb's 17, though the veteran beat him 4-2 in targets. Marks also logged six carries to Chubb's nine and posted 27 rushing yards. His 4.5 yards per carry edged Chubb's 4.2.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said that RB Nick Chubb will serve as the Houston Texans' "bell cow" RB in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Rams.

Texans GM Nick Caserio wouldn't say Wednesday whether RB Joe Mixon (foot/ankle) will play at all this year. "We'll see, we'll take it one day at a time," Caserio said. Mixon will miss at least the first four games of the season on the reserve/non-football injury list. "Once we get through four weeks, we'll evaluate it at that time," Caserio added.

The Houston Texans have placed RB Joe Mixon (ankle) on the reserve/non-football injury list, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. He’ll miss at least the first four games.

Texans RB Joe Mixon hasn't been on the field in a while, and we've seen alternating reports of ankle injury and foot injury. So which is it? Seems like some sort of combo.
