Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Justin Houston, listed as questionable with a knee injury, will make his 2016 NFL debut Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
Houston has been sidelined since undergoing offseason surgery in February to repair the ACL in his left knee.
Earlier this week, coach Andy Reid said he thought "there's a good chance" Houston would make his season debut Sunday.
Houston's return should bolster an already stout pass rush that features linebacker Dee Ford, who is tied for the NFL lead in sacks with 10.
