Brandin Cooks (calf) absent again Thursday for Texans
Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks (calf) is not practicing on Thursday.
What It Means:
Cooks (calf) and Nico Collins (foot) have both missed back-to-back practices as the Texans prepare for their Week 14 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Phillip Dorsett and Chris Moore will likely be Houston's starting receivers if Collins and Cooks are unavailable.
Per numberFire's nERD rankings, the Cowboys have the No. 1 overall defense and No. 1 pass defense this season, so the Texans are likely going to have more trouble than usual throwing the ball. Cooks (20.8%) and Collins (18.9%) account for 39.7% of the Texans' targets this season.
