J.J. Watt held out of Thursday’s practice

The Houston Texans have to be one of the most banged up teams in the NFL heading into week four.

Defensive lineman J.J. Watt ended up missing practice on Thursday because of the finger injury that he suffered back in week one.

The good news is that both defensive lineman D.J. Reader and cornerback Marcus Burley were limited after sitting out on Wednesday.
