The Green Bay Packers had only two questionable players to face the Houston Texans, and both will play/the most important of them will play on Sunday at Lambeau Field. That means Devonte Wyatt, who had been ruled out on Friday, is the only member of the 53-man roster who is not available.
Wicks in
Just a week after leaving the Arizona Cardinals game early with a shoulder injury, wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks is back in action. The second-year player was initially considered week-to-week, but he practiced all week and is officially active.
With that, the Packers will have their entire wide receiver group at disposal against the Texans — two weeks ago against the Los Angeles Rams, Christian Watson (ankle) and Romeo Doubs (personal) didn't play, and last week Wicks left the game in the first half.
Wooden in
Defensive lineman Colby Wooden is also available to play. He didn't practice on Wednesday and was limited on Thursday and Friday because of a knee injury, but he is healthy enough and the Packers listed him as active to face the Texans.
With former first-round pick Devonte Wyatt ruled out with an ankle injury, Wooden is even more important in the defensive line rotation. He's the fourth option for this game, behind Kenny Clark, TJ Slaton, and Karl Brooks. The Packers did not elevate any player at the position from the practice squad.
Packers inactives:
- DE Brenton Cox
- TE John FitzPatrick
- T Travis Glover
- C Jacob Monk
- S Kitan Oladapo

Texans inactives:
- ILB Azeez Al-Shaair
