The Houston Texans could be without tight end Owen Daniels when they head to Chicago to face the Bears in a huge Sunday night matchup.

Daniels, the Texans second-leading receiver, was limited in practice on Friday after sitting out on both Wednesday and Thursday because of a sore back. The seven-year veteran will be a game-time decision when the Texans (7-1) clash with the Bears (7-1) on national TV. Daniels leads Houston with five touchdown catches on the year.

Backup running back Ben Tate, who missed last Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills, is listed as out for Week 10. Tate has been plagued by a hamstring injury and did not practice at all this week. Shaun Cody will also miss Sunday's game with a rib injury that kept him out of practice this week.

Kickoff for Sunday night's game is scheduled for 7:20 p.m. CT at Soldier Field and the game will be televised on NBC.
