Arian Foster will be a game-time decision and is questionable for Week 4 due to a hamstring injury.

Foster was a late scratch in Week 3 due to the injury.

Foster rushed 55 times for 241 yards in the first two weeks of the season. 

Arian Foster has been ruled inactive for Week 3 by the Houston Texans against the New York Giants due to a hamstring injury.

Foster tested the hamstring Sunday morning after being limited all week in practice.

Foster has 241 yards and one touchdown on 55 attempts this season.

The Houston Texans will consider using J.J. Watt more as a tight end.

Watt caught a touchdown pass after linging up as a tight end on a second-and-1 from the 1-yard line on the first drive of the game.

Watt is widely considered the NFL's best defensive player.

Bill O'Brien told reporters he expects to use Watt "more and more" as a red zone tight end moving forward.

"We had some injuries at tight end a couple weeks ago and you've got a guy that is sitting over there that is 6-foot-7, 295 pounds; he can jump," O'Brien said. "He was a tight end early in his career in high school and in college, so he's got an idea on how to catch the ball and he can block. We can use him in different packages at tight end, which is good."

Jadeveon Clowney had arthroscopic surgery on his right knee Monday and will be out four to six weeks.

Bill O'Brien said he didn't know exactly what was repaired in Clowney's knee.

Clowney was injured late in the second quarter in Sunday's win over the Washington Redskins. He has struggled to stay on the field since joining the Texans.

The Houston Texans fear Jadeveon Clowney suffered a meniscus tear in his knee.

Clowney left the game late in the second quarter with a knee injury after landing awkwardly on the ground and did not return in the second half. Clowney looked visibly upset as he walked into the Texans' locker room with a trainer.

J.J. Watt's new contract with the Houston Texans is nearly identical to the one Mario Williams signed with the Buffalo Bills as a free agent in 2012.

Watt's eight-year includes $51.9 million in total guarantees; Williams' deal included $50M.

Watt's deal averages $18M a year over the first three years according to NFLPA records; Williams' deal averages $17.7M per year over the first three seasons.

Watt's average per year over the full contract is $16.7M: Williams' average is $16M.

The Houston Texans targeted Matt Barkley before moving forward with the New England Patriots on a trade for Ryan Mallett.

Barkley is one of the backup quarterbacks on the Philadelphia Eagles along with Mark Sanchez.

Chip Kelly has appeared to want as many quarterbacks as possible to protect against injury.

J.J. Watt and the Houston Texans have agreed upon a six-year contract extension worth as much as $100 million.

The deal, which affects the final two seasons of his current contract and keeps him with the Texans through the 2021 season, will pay Watt a guaranteed $51.8 million, the most for a defensive player in NFL history. The $16.6 million annual value also is the highest for a defensive player.

He said in August that he hoped he had earned a new contract.

"With the new [collective bargaining agreement], I think one of the goals was to make guys earn their pay," Watt said. "No more big paydays up front. Make guys go out there and play, show that they've earned it.

"So I think when a team gives a big contract after the third year, they're saying, 'Listen, we think you've earned this.' I don't know if [the Texans] feel that way or not, but I sure hope I've put in all the work, and I've put in everything I can do to hopefully earn it."

Watt has been widely considered the best defensive player in the NFL over the past two seasons.
