Texans' Kamari Lassiter: Still dealing with foot injury
Rotowire
Lassiter (foot) did not participate at practice Wednesday.
Lassiter has played through the problem with his foot for the past few weeks, so it's likely Houston is just being cautious with its ascendent talent at cornerback. He'll get two more chances to practice before the Texans release their final practice report of the week Friday.

Rotowire
Lassiter tallied five tackles (three solo) and two pass defenses, including an interception, during the Texans' 40-20 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

He logged his fourth interception of the season early in the third quarter on a pass from Jacoby Brissett that was intended for Michael Wilson in the end zone.

Rotowire
Lassiter (foot) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Lassiter managed to log a limited practice Friday, his first of the week, and it was enough to clear the cornerback of an injury designation for Sunday's contest. Now that he's past the foot injury he suffered against the Chiefs in Week 14, the cornerback will likely continue the streak of 100 percent defensive snaps he has logged since Week 8.

Lassiter recorded five tackles (five solo) and one pass breakup in Thursday night's win over the Bills.
Lassiter played 100 percent of the defensive snaps for the fifth straight contest and played lockdown coverage against Buffalo, as Josh Allen completed just three passes for 28 scoreless yards when targeting Lassiter.

Texans' Kamari Lassiter: Posts two stops in Week 11 win
Rotowire
Lassiter recorded two tackles (one solo) and a defensed pass Sunday in a 16-13 victory versus Tennessee.
Lassiter played every defensive snap for the Texans but had a meager two tackles for the second straight week. That's not a reflection of Lassiter's level of play -- he was impressive again Sunday, as he has been throughout the season, but that sometimes limits the amount of tackles he gets to make. To highlight that point, Lassiter has notched at least one defensed pass in seven straight contests, the longest such streak in the NFL this season.

Texans' Kamari Lassiter: Quiet output in Week 10 win
Rotowire
Lassiter recorded two tackles (both solo) and a defensed pass Sunday in a 36-29 victory versus Jacksonville.
Lassiter played every defensive snap for Houston but logged a season-low two stops. He did, however, manage to record a defensed pass for the sixth straight game. The low tackle total doesn't take away from Lassiter's strong play, and he even slid over to the slot at times in nickel packages. Lassiter is tied for 14th in the league with eight defensed passes so far this season.

Texans' Kamari Lassiter: Remains in concussion protocols
Rotowire
Lassiter (concussion) was listed as a DNP on Thursday's injury report, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
Lassiter was diagnosed with a concussion during Houston's Week 10 loss to Detroit, which prevented him from practicing Thursday. Even if Lassiter was able to return to practice over the next two days, that doesn't guarantee he will be able to pass through the league's five-step concussion protocols in time to play against Dallas on Monday. Ka'dar Hollman saw increased snaps on defense in Week 10 following Lassiter's exit, and the former finished with four solo tackles across 25 defensive snaps.

Texans' Kamari Lassiter: Gets on practice field
Rotowire
Lassiter (shoulder) was limited in practice Wednesday.
Lassiter is still tending to a scapula injury suffered in Week 5 that has kept the cornerback out of action since.

However, a clear answer on his status for the matchup likely won't come until closer to kickoff.

Texans' Kamari Lassiter: Expected to miss multiple games
Rotowire
Lassiter is expected to miss multiple games as he recovers from a scapula injury he sustained in the Texans' Week 5 win over the Bills, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Lassiter was already ruled out for Sunday's game at New England, but he appears likely to miss at least an additional game beyond that. Until Lassiter is healthy again, D'Angelo Ross should step in as a starter in the Houston secondary. A rookie second-round pick out of Georgia, Lassiter has compiled 19 tackles, three passes defensed and an interception through the first five weeks of the season.

Texans' Kamari Lassiter: Logs DNP
Rotowire
Lassiter (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday.
Lassiter played 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps in Sunday's win over Buffalo, so it's not clear how or when he picked up the injury. Assuming it did happen during the game and he was able to play through it, it's likely not a significant injury for the Georgia product. Greater clarity should come when the team returns to the practice field Thursday.
