Description: Texans LB Zac Diles suffered a concussion in Week 17 vs. the Jaguars and is done for the game.

Description: Texans WLB Zac Diles spent Thursday night in a hospital after experiencing flu-like symptoms and did not make the trip for Week 11's match-up. SOURCE: Houston Chronicle
Insight: Diles is inactive and his owners will want to look for other options. At this point, it looks like Daryl Sharpton is Diles' backup at the weak-side.

Description: Texans coach Gary Kubiak said that fourth-round pick Darryl Sharpton could compete for a starting spot on the weak side.
Insight: Sharpton would need Diles to suffer an injury in order for this to happen. There is no way the rookie will replace a guy who just came off a pretty solid season. (SportsBuff.com)

Description: Diles appears to have won the Texans' weak-side linebacker job, beating out Xavier Adibi.
Insight: Houston missed him last season when he went on injured reserve with a broken leg. However, he may still share at least some of the duties with Adibi, limiting his value in IDP leagues. (SportsBuff.com)

Questionable10/31/2008 8:01:00 PM
Description: Diles was limited in practice this week by an injured hamstring and is questionable for the game against Minnesota.
Insight: He makes for a strong play if available, so we'll keep an eye on his status on Sunday. (SportsBuff.com)

Description: Diles notched eight total tackles (five solo) and a forced fumble in Sunday's loss to the Titans. That followed his Week 1 11-solo starting debut.
Insight: The second-year linebacker might have already passed Morlon Greenwood as the team's second-best IDP linebacker. He certainly looks like a player on the rise. (Matt Schauf/SportsBuff.com)
