### Texans Face Off Against Bills with Depleted Roster

The Houston Texans are set to face the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, but they'll be missing several crucial players. Running back Joe Mixon is out due to an ankle injury he sustained in Week 2, and right tackle Tytus Howard will be sidelined with a hamstring injury.

Additionally, backup running back Dameon Pierce is unavailable, leaving the Texans to rely on Cam Akers, Dare Ogunbowale, and J.J. Taylor to handle the carries at NRG Stadium. The absence of these key players will undoubtedly challenge Houston's offensive strategy.

Despite these setbacks, starting linebacker and team captain Azeez Al-Shaair, who was listed as questionable on Saturday because of an illness, will be active for Sunday's game. This news provides a glimmer of hope for the Texans' defense.

The Texans' lineup will also be missing defensive end Derek Barnett, wide receiver Steven Sims Jr., and linebacker Jake Hansen.
