Watt (groin) returned to the practice field on Monday after recovery from offseason surgery kept him sidelined for previous OTAs, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Watt remains less than 100% for the time being as his repaired core muscles continue to heal, but the fact that he was able to workout with the team Monday leaves a sense of optimism that he'll be a full participant throughout training camp later in the summer. At this rate he should be back to full health well before the arrival of Week 1 when the Texans begin the season against the Bears.
