Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon and linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair are both set to play in Saturday's divisional playoff game at Kansas City, NFL Network reported.

Joe Mixon had a huge Wild Card playoff game for the Houston Texans against the Los Angeles Chargers — he ran for 106 yards and touchdown on 25 carries. But an ankle injury popped up this week, with reports that he practiced a bit on Wednesday and wasn’t on the field for Thursday’s walkthrough, per Texans Wire.

The do-it-all running back for Houston was a late addition to the injury report this week, clouding his status for the weekend matchup in Kansas City. The Texans already have dealt with plenty of issues at the receiver spot this season, only adding more to Mixon's plate.

Running back Joe Mixon's 13-yard TD run caps the Houston Texans' 15-play drive to start third quarter. Defensive tackle Tershawn Wharton notches Kansas City Chiefs' third sack of first half vs. Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud.

Here’s who is out for the Houston Texans in Saturday’s divisional round matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.
