Brown (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's divisional-round matchup versus the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Brown dealt with a pair of ankle and knee injuries over the last few weeks, and he was sidelined for the final two games of the regular season. The 32-year-old suited up and started Monday's wild-card win over the Steelers, but he popped back up with an ankle issue, which will keep him out versus New England. In his stead, Tytus Howard will likely move over to start at right tackle while Jarrett Patterson fills in at left guard.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old from Florida upgraded from a DNP on Thursday to a limited practice Friday, suggesting he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's playoff contest. However, if Brown is forced to miss the divisional round, expect Tytus Howard to step in as Houston's top right tackle.

EDGE Analysis

Brown has now logged consecutive limited sessions, leaving him one more opportunity to upgrade his practice participation in the hopes of dodging an injury designation ahead of Monday night's wild-card clash with the Steelers. The right tackle was inactive for the Week 18 win over the Colts, and if he cannot at least maintain limited participation in Saturday's session, he will likely not play in Monday's elimination game.

EDGE Analysis

Brown sustained a knee injury late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Raiders. The offensive tackle's lack of participation in practice is a poor sign for his potential ability to suit up for Saturday's game against the Chargers. Brown will have two more opportunities to get back on the practice field in an attempt to dodge injury designation ahead of Saturday's game.

EDGE Analysis

Brown sustained a knee injury late in the fourth quarter and did not return to the contest. The tackle did not have much to return for, so his status for Week 17 will remain in question. Tytus Howard filled in at right tackle during Brown's absence and would be set to start Week 17 against the Chargers if Brown is unable to suit up.
