Texans linebackers Benardrick McKinney, Jacob Martin return to practice
One week after the Texans' linebackers were shorthanded, they were bolstered by the return of veteran inside linebacker Benardrick McKinney and outside linebacker Jacob Martin.
McKinney missed the Tampa Bay game with a concussion. He ranks second on the defense behind Pro Bowl alternate Zach Cunningham with 101 tackles and has one forced fumble.
Martin, a Katy native, missed the Tampa Bay game with a knee injury. The situational pass rusher, acquired from the Seahawks in the Jadeveon Clowney trade, has a career-high 3 1/2 sacks in his second NFL season.
