Nick Chubb Practicing Again Thursday

Thursday, December 18, 2:17 PM

Houston Texans running back Nick Chubb (rib) is practicing for the second straight day on Thursday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports. The 29-year-old returned to practice in a limited capacity on Wednesday and is trending towards returning on Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders after missing last week's win over the Cardinals. With rookie Woody Marks (ankle) not at practice for the second consecutive day after getting banged up in Week 15, Chubb could be in line to handle the bulk of the touches in Week 16. The veteran hasn't recorded double-digit touches in a game since Week 9, so his workload could be limited in his return from injury. The emergence of Jawhar Jordan is also a factor, as he was a popular waiver pickup this week after posting the first 100-yard rushing performance of the season for the Texans last week against Arizona. Houston's backfield is still murky at the moment, and fantasy managers should continue to monitor the Texans' injury report on Friday.
