Brown (knee) was a limited practice participant Thursday.
Brown has been listed as a limited participant on both of Houston's first two Week 16 injury reports after he produced eight catches for 82 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets in this past Saturday's 19-16 overtime win over the Titans. He moved into an elevated role Week 15 in the absence of Nico Collins (calf), who, like Brown, has opened Week 16 prep with a pair of limited practices. The Texans will post their final practice report of the week Friday, when it will be known if either or both of Brown and Collins will carry designations into Sunday's game against the Browns.
