Woods (foot) is in line to miss Sunday's game at New England, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Woods showed up on the Texans' practice report last week due to a foot injury, which sidelined him Thursday, limited his reps Friday and resulted in a questionable tag for Week 5 action. He suited up this past Sunday against the Bills and played 24 percent of the snaps, but he also wasn't targeted for the third time in five games this season. It appears Woods may have aggravated the issue, considering he hasn't practiced this week and now is trending toward his first absence of the campaign. Friday's injury report ultimately may rule him out for Week 6.

Woods (foot) remained absent from practice Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Woods also missed Wednesday's practice, so what he's able to do during Friday's session will loom larger in terms of his status for Sunday's game against the Patriots. With Nico Collins (hamstring) on IR, Woods is a candidate to see added WR snaps behind Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell, provided his foot issue doesn't impact his availability.

Woods (foot) didn't participate in practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Woods also missed some practice time due to a foot injury leading up to the Week 5 win over the Bills, but he managed to play through it, though the veteran wide receiver didn't draw a target. Based on how the Texans deployed their wide receivers after Nico Collins (hamstring) exited against Buffalo, Xavier Hutchinson would likely join Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell in three-receiver sets Sunday against the Patriots while Woods is limited to a depth role if he plays.

Woods was not targeted over 16 snaps in Sunday's 23-20 win over Buffalo in Week 5. He also returned five punts for 66 yards and one kickoff for 31 yards.

EDGE Analysis

Woods, who played 54 snaps as a fill-in for wideout Tank Dell last week, was held back Sunday in favor of Xavier Hutchinson, who filled in after Nico Collins (hamstring) left the game. However the depth chart shakes out behind the top three wideouts, neither Woods nor Hutchinson are expected to see an uptick in targets when at least two of the top three are healthy. Woods replaced the inactive Steven Sims as Houston's kickoff returner Sunday.

Woods (foot) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Bills.

EDGE Analysis

Woods didn't practice Thursday, but after returning to a limited session field Friday, he approached the contest listed as questionable. Now that his active status has been confirmed, Woods -- who has caught three of five targets in four games to date for 28 yards -- is slated to return to a complementary role in Houston's offense, with Tank Dell (chest) back in action after a one-game absence and set to reclaim his key role alongside fellow WRs Nico Collins and Stefon Diggs.

Woods (foot) is in line to suit up in Sunday's Week 5 contest versus Buffalo, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Woods popped up on the injury report this week due to a foot injury. He didn't practice Thursday but was able to participate in a limited fashion Friday, which looks to have been enough for him to take the field Sunday. Woods isn't likely to see extensive opportunities since Nico Collins, Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell are all healthy and ahead of him in the receiver pecking order.

Woods (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills after being limited in practice Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Woods didn't practice Thursday, so it was encouraging that he managed to return to the practice field Friday, even in a limited capacity. Even if Woods suits up Sunday, he isn't expected to play a significant role, as Tank Dell (chest) has been cleared to return after a one-game absence, and there haven't been many targets left over in Houston's wide receiver room behind Nico Collins, Stefon Diggs and Dell.

Woods (foot) is participating in Friday's practice, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Woods didn't practice Thursday due to a foot injury, so it's encouraging to see him back on the field in at least a limited capacity. Friday's official injury report will reveal whether the veteran wideout practiced in full or was limited, and whether Woods carries an official injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Woods (foot) didn't practice Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Woods practiced fully Wednesday, so his DNP a day later is notable. On the plus side for the Texans, Tank Dell (chest) has logged back-to-back limited sessions. If he's able to play Sunday against the Bills, Woods, if available, presumably would move back to a reserve role behind Nico Collins, Stefon Diggs and Dell.

Woods caught one of three targets for 10 yards and played a season-high 54 snaps in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Jaguars in Week 4.

EDGE Analysis

Woods' healthy snap count was attributable to Tank Dell (chest) being inactive. In the three previous weeks, Woods totaled 34 snaps and two targets. Without Dell, quarterback C.J. Stroud stepped up his reliance on Nico Collins (15 targets) and Stefon Diggs (nine).
