Texans' Lamar Miller sidelined again

Texans veteran running back Lamar Miller worked on the side with trainers, not practicing for the second consecutive day.

Miller could be held out of the Texans' regular-season road finale against the Tennessee Titans because of an ankle injury. Miller didn't play during a 12-10 win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday.

It would make sense for the Texans to rest Miller and get him as healthy as possible for an upcoming AFC wild-card playoff game at NRG Stadium the following week. Miller has rushed for 1,073 yards and five touchdowns in his first season with the Texans.

Meanwhile, Pro Bowl defensive end Jadeveon Clowney and starting outside linebacker John Simon didn't practice again.

Clowney has dealt with elbow and wrist injuries throughout the season, missing one game. He has recorded sacks in three consecutive games and a career-high six sacks this season.

Simon returned from a pectoral injury against the Bengals after missing four games.

Fullback Jay Prosch isn't practicing after being limited with knee and ankle injuries Wednesday.
