  • Texans' Denico Autry: Will suit up in wild-card round

    Autry (knee) is active for Saturday's wild-card matchup against the Chargers.

    Autry missed Houston's regular-season finale due to a knee injury and began this week by sitting out practice. However, he upgraded to a limited session Wednesday before logging a full practice Friday and is good to go for the wild-card game against Los Angeles. When healthy this season, Autry has mostly served in a rotational role, coming off the bench in eight of his 10 contests.

  • Texans' Denico Autry: Questionable for wild-card round

    Autry (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's AFC wild-card game against the Chargers, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

    Autry appears towards being on the probable side of playing as he was a full participant in Thursday's practice. Barring any setbacks, Autry and Derek Barnett should serve as the Texans' top rotational defensive ends Saturday behind starters Will Anderson and Danielle Hunter.

  • Texans' Denico Autry: Returns to practice Wednesday

    Autry (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Autry was held out of the Texans' regular-season finale against the Titans due to a lingering knee injury. He opened this week as a DNP on Tuesday, but his ability to practice Wednesday indicates that he is progressing in his recovery and should be able to play in Saturday's AFC wild-card game against the Chargers.

  • Texans' Denico Autry: Sits out practice

    Autry (knee) did not practice Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Autry missed the regular-season finale against the Titans due to the injury, but he is expected to suit up for Saturday's playoff game against the Chargers. He's part of the rotation at defensive end and had 13 tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and three passes defensed over 10 games played during the regular season.

  • Texans' Denico Autry: Missing Week 18

    Autry (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Titans.

    Autry appears to have aggravated his knee injury in the Texans' Week 17 loss to the Chiefs on Christmas Day, as he played just 15 defensive snaps and was unable to practice all week. The 34-year-old's absence Sunday could also be precautionary, given that the Texans have already secured the No. 4 seed in the AFC playoffs. Regardless, Dylan Horton is expected to serve as one of the Texans' top reserve defensive ends in Autry's stead.

  • Texans' Denico Autry: Active for Christmas Day

    Autry (knee) is active for Wednesday's game against Baltimore.

    Autry was a limited practice participant all week due to a knee injury, but he has been cleared to play Christmas Day and will provide depth for the Texans' defensive line. Over his last seven games, Autry has tallied 13 tackles (eight solo), including 3.0 sacks, and two pass defenses.

  • Texans' Denico Autry: Questionable, but expected to play

    Autry (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Ravens but is expected to play, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Autry has been listed as a limited practice participant all week due to a knee injury he likely picked up in Houston's Week 16 loss to Kansas City. Autry's official status for Christmas Day may not be known until the Texans announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Derek Barnett would serve as the top backup defensive end behind starters Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson if Autry is not cleared to play.

  • Texans' Denico Autry: Suiting up Week 12

    Autry (knee) is active for Sunday's game against Tennessee.

    Autry didn't practice at all this week due to a knee injury, but that won't keep him out of Sunday's matchup against his former squad. The defensive tackle has been playing around half of Houston's defensive snaps since making his Texans debut in Week 7 following a season-opening suspension. Autry's availability Sunday will help Houston's pass rush, as he has 3.0 sacks through five games on the campaign.

  • Texans' Denico Autry: Questionable for Week 12

    Autry (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Titans.

    Despite logging three consecutive DNPs during the Texans' week of practice, the 34-year-old still has a chance to suit up in Week 12. If Autry misses Sunday's divisional matchup, the impact would be mitigated by the return of Will Anderson. If he is able to play through his knee issue, Autry will likely serve as a rotational defensive end.

  • Texans' Denico Autry: Unavailable for practice

    Autry (knee) did not participate at the Texans' practice Wednesday.

    Autry recorded four total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding a pass defensed in the team's win over the Cowboys on Monday Night Football. He may have picked up a knee injury in the process and his status at practice the rest of the week is worth monitoring ahead of Sunday's matchup with Tennessee.
