    Texans running back Ben Tate missed practice Thursday and won’t practice until Saturday to give his injured toe some rest, per Nick Scurfield of the Houston Chronicle.

    Scurfield tweeted: "Kubiak said #Texans will hold Ben Tate (toe) out until Saturday & get Justin Forsett ready to go just in case"

    When dealing with a toe injury there is always a concern that it could be turf toe, so it’s understandable why the Texans are taking all the necessary precautions here. The Texans will play Monday night against the Jets, so that’ll give Tate’s toe an extra day to get healthy. As of now, Tate is considered a game-time decision.
