Even if Kenny Stills' hamstring and ankle cooperates and he's somehow able to play Sunday, the Texans will need contributions from wide receiver Keke Coutee against the Atlanta Falcons.
Back from a sprained ankle that caused him to miss over a month, Coutee began shedding rust and getting involved in the offense against the Carolina Panthers.
Coutee caught one pass for 11 yards and rushed for 10 yards on an option play.
Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is eager to see Coutee get back to his old playmaking ways.
"The four weeks that he took off in the preseason were very tough, nothing that we wanted," Watson said.
