Joe Mixon isn't on practice report with an injury after another hip-drop tackle

Joe Mixon was the recipient of another hip-drop tackle. The Texans running back missed three games with an ankle injury after an illegal tackle by Bears linebacker T.J. Edwards.

On Sunday, Dolphins linebacker Jordyn Brooks used the hip-drop tackle on Mixon.

Mixon briefly left the game with an ankle injury, but Tuesday's practice report delivered good news as Mixon is not listed with an injury. He had a limited practice as a load management day.

Mixon said he will play Saturday despite the Texans having already clinched the AFC South.

"It's the start of playoff football right now," Mixon said, via video from Jonathan Alexander of the Houston Chronicle. "I've got be there, and I'm going to be there. I'm going to be there for my teammates and obviously for myself. I've just got to do whatever I can to attack recovery today, tomorrow, Friday and obviously we've got the game on Saturday."

The Texans estimated defensive tackle Folorunso Fatukasi (ankle), wide receiver John Metchie (shoulder), quarterback Davis Mills (illness), linebacker Del'Shawn Phillips (foot), offensive guard Juice Scruggs (foot) and tight end Cade Stover (illness) as non-participants.

Offensive guard Kenyon Green (shoulder) had full participation as he seeks to return from injured reserve.
