Houston Texans RB Ben Tate (groin) likely will start in the first preseason game as long as he does not have any setbacks before the game.

Footballguys View: Tate injured his groin last Friday but is back in practice on Wednesday. He has a great opportunity to prove himself as Arian Foster (calf) is missing time right now.
