Tyrod Taylor to return to Houston Texans practice this week as QB 'getting closer' to playing

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Houston Texans quarterback Tyrod Taylor will return to practice this week, coach David Culley said after his team's 31-5 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.

Taylor has been on injured reserve since he injured his left hamstring in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns. Culley said he feels Taylor is "a lot further along now and he's getting closer" to playing, and that the team will know more about the veteran quarterback's status Wednesday.

Culley said he wants to "make sure that when [Taylor is] running around back there that there's nothing hampering him from being the kind of player that he is, using his legs.
