Texans to start Tytus Howard at left guard again as Steven Nelson, Brandin Cooks return from injuries

One week after the Texans switched up their offensive line because of rookie guard Kenyon Green’s sprained ankle, they’ll use the same configuration Saturday against the Tennessee Titans. AaronWilson_NFL

Tytus Howard will remain at left guard, according to league sources, after moving over from his natural right tackle spot last week. He’ll line up next to Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil with Charlie Heck operating at right tackle. It was a successful tandem last week as running back Royce Freeman rushed for 51 yards with most of his gains earned running behind Tunsil and Howard on the left side. Freeman is expected to have a similar workload against the Titans.

The Texans’ inactive players are quarterback Kyle Allen, cornerback Jacobi Francis, Green, tight end O.J. Howard and defensive end Mario Addison. Cooks looked sharp in drills and is set to play after missing the past three games. Cooks leads the Texans with 44 receptions for 520 yards and one touchdown this season.
