By Jared Smola | Updated on Sun, Dec 14 2025 4:34 PM UTC

Texans RB Nick Chubb (ribs) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Cardinals. RB Woody Marks should dominate backfield work and is a strong fantasy play with the Texans big favorites in this one. RBs Dare Ogunbowale, British Brooks, and Jawhar Jordan are active behind Marks.
