Christian Kirk Fails to Practice, Status for Week 8 in Doubt
Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk (hamstring) failed to participate once again in Thursday's practice and is now trending toward missing a second consecutive game. Kirk has struggled to get onto the field this season, due to lingering hamstring issues, appearing in just three of the team's six games. When healthy, Kirk is a consistent target for C.J. Stroud in the passing game, but it has been difficult to get him on the field. Xavier Hutchinson appears likely to get the start on Sunday with both Kirk and Nico Collins (concussion) banged up. C.J. Stroud will likely also look to rookie Jayden Higgins to jumpstart a sputtering passing game.
