The Houston Texans will have wide receiver Kenny Stills back in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts. The team announced that he was a full-participant in practice on Wednesday after being out since Week 4 due to a hamstring injury.

The Texans will look to integrate Still into their offense perhaps more than they had involved him prior to his injury. So far this season, he has recorded 11 receptions on 14 targets resulting in 188 yards and a touchdown. He has been targeted over three times in just one of his appearances this season.

The potential for big plays that Stills has shown brings additional layers to the Texans' offense and that's why they pursued him before the season. The greatest example from this season came when there was less than a minute left against the New Orleans Saints and Stills recorded a 37-yard yard touchdown reception to take the lead.

The matchup with the Colts that the Texans have on Sunday would be an ideal opportunity for Stills to get re-acclimated into the flow of things. There are heavy implications regarding the AFC South standings for both teams.

Stills was acquired by the Texans in a trade with the Miami Dolphins before the 2019 regular season began. The Texans received offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil along with Stills in exchange for two first-round picks and a second-round pick.
