Jared Wayne

No Nico Collins, Ed Ingram or Jadeveon Clowney at practice today.

Dalton Schultz and Trent Brown, who didn’t practice Wednesday, have both returned.

Collins needs to return Friday to retain a realistic chance of playing, and even a limited session would leave him carrying substantial re-injury risk. Schultz remains the clearest beneficiary of another absence. Hutchinson, Boutte and Noel are the highest-ranked available Houston receivers, although the Texans used a committee approach without Collins in Week 2.
