DB - Houston Texans - IR
Week 16 Outlook
Availability
Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said Jimmie Ward will have surgery and miss the rest of the season.

Jimmie Ward has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Jets.

The Texans practiced without Ward on Thursday. He's managing a lingering groin injury right now, and it looks like it may leave him sidelined in Week 8. That would be less than ideal for Houston's secondary, which has already struggled at points this year.

Fantasy Impact
A groin injury left Ward sidelined on Thursday. It is an issue that has been bothering him for a while now, and it looks like it may leave him sidelined this weekend. That would be less than ideal for Houston's defense in a tough matchup against the Packers.
