Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Ready to kick Sunday

Fairbairn (quadricep) was activated from injured reserve and will serve as the Texans' kicker Sunday against the Titans.

Fairbairn hasn't played since Week 10 due a groin injury, but his absence was sorely missed given Matt Ammendola missed three of his nine field-goal attempts over the team's past five games. The Texans offense might be a bit more inefficient without star signal-caller C.J. Stroud (concussion) playing Sunday, so Fairbairn's scoring opportunities could be limited as a result.
