Rookie receiver Braxton Miller was among the Texans inactives for the Thursday Night Football showdown with the Patriots. He missed practice during the week with a hamstring injury, and joined linebacker Brian Cushing (knee) and left tackle Duane Brown (quadriceps) in being ruled out for the game on Wednesday.
New England, meanwhile, is without quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who injured an AC joint in last Sunday's win over the Dolphins.
