Derek Stingley Jr.: Texans Activating Derek Stingley From Injured Reserve

The Houston Texans are activating cornerback Derek Stingley (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Saturday and are releasing offensive tackle Austin Deculus from the 53-man roster in a corresponding move, according to a league source. Stingley will return to action this Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals in a Week 10 matchup for the first time since getting hurt in Week 2. The 22-year-old's return will be a huge boost to a Texans secondary that has struggled to this point in the season, but in his first game back, Stingley will most likely be on a strict snap count. The former third overall pick by Houston last year out of LSU had 43 tackles (35 solo), one sack and an interception in nine starts for the Texans in his rookie season.
