Ka'imi Fairbairn Not Ready, Matt Amendola To Kick Again
12 months ago

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) hasn't suffered any setbacks in his recovery from a strained right quadriceps, according to sources, but he isn't quite ready to return in Week 14 against the New York Jets and will spend another week on Injured Reserve. As a result, the Texans will elevate Matt Ammendola from the practice squad to the active roster to kick against his former team on Sunday. Fairbairn will now miss his fifth game due to his quad injury, leaving Ammendola as the starter against the Jets this weekend. Fantasy managers should be able to find better options at the position. The 26-year-old Ammendola has made six of his nine field-goal tries and all 10 of his extra-point attempts in the four contests filling in for the hobbled Fairbairn.
