Jadeveon Clowney returns to practice

Dec 08, 2016 at 07:13 AM

Jadeveon Clowney returned to practice Thursday, for the first time since being ruled inactive for Sunday's loss at Green Bay.

"I feel good," Clowney said Thursday. "I'm back out there at practice. I'm feeling good enough to go."

Clowney, listed with an elbow/wrist injury, did not participate in Wednesday's practice and was limited on Thursday. The Texans 21-13 loss to the Packers was the first game that Clowney did not start this season.
Whether or not he returns to the starting lineup in Week 14 at Indianapolis is yet to be determined, according to head coach Bill O'Brien.

"I'd still put him in the day-to-day," O'Brien said.

The Texans starting defensive end is just one of three players in the NFL with at least 40 tackles, 3.0 sacks, 12 TFLs, and one pass defensed (Broncos OLB Von Miller and Saints DE Cameron Jordan).

The (6-6) Texans are currently in a three-way tie for first place in the AFC South, with the Colts and Tennessee Titans. Houston, currently 3-0 in the division, hold the tie-breaker heading into the Week 14 games.
