Houston Texans RB Ben Tate (hamstring) was not ready to return to practice Monday, Oct. 29, and he likely won’t be ready for a few more days, putting his Week 9 status in doubt. ‘My biggest level of concern with Tate is just keeping him on the field,’ head coach Gary Kubiak said. ‘It seems like it’s been one thing after another. If it’s not the toe, the hamstring. This has been going on for a few years. We need him.’

Our View: No official word on his playing status yet. We’ll see if Tate can get back on the practice field sometime this week. If he can’t play then we’ll see Justin Forsett as the primary backup behind Arian Foster.
