Good to go Sunday
Houston (calf) has been deemed active ahead of Sunday's game against Seattle.
ANALYSIS
Houston dealt with a calf injury during the leadup to Sunday's Week 3 contest for Carolina. However, this won't keep him from suiting up for the third game in a row to begin the season. Houston totaled four tackles and 0.5 sacks over the first two games of the season.

Houston will need to fall off at some point after turning 31 this winter, but for now it seems too early to count him out. Not only did he post 44 tackles and 11 sacks on just 685 snaps last year, but the Colts made Houston's job easier by acquiring elite defensive tackle DeForest Buckner from San Francisco. If Buckner draws more double teams and collapses the pocket better than Margus Hunt before him, then Houston might see more favorable working conditions than a year ago. Still, Houston's days as a 700-snap player appear to be gone, and with that goes his former 20-sack upside.
