Ka'imi Fairbairn Making Significant Progress

12 months ago

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) is eligible to be activated from Injured Reserve after the Week 13 game against the Denver Broncos and he is making significant progress in his recovery from a strained quadriceps, according to sources. Houston waived fill-in kicker Matt Ammendola on Monday, but he's a possibility to rejoin the practice squad. Meanwhile, the team is working out veteran Brett Maher on Tuesday. When healthy, Fairbairn is the Texans' regular kicker. The 29-year-old is in his seventh year with the team and had made 18 of his 19 field-goal tries and all 14 of his extra-point opportunities this year in eight games played before injuring his quadriceps in the Week 9 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
