HOUSTON – Woody Marks powered through ankle and knee injuries Sunday night during a victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.

This marked the heaviest workload yet for the Texans’ rookie running back. He gutted it out and earned some tough yards, 68 of them on a career-high 26 carries against a stout Chiefs front as he was held to 2.6 yards per run and caught an eight-yard touchdown pass.

“I’m feeling good,” said Marks, who has no injury designation after missing one practice Wednesday. “Last game, guys were attacking at my knees kind of a little soreness right there. Nothing major I’m always going to go back in the game unless i’m tremendously hurt and lay it on the line for my brothers.”

For the season, Marks has rushed for a team-high 554 yards and two touchdowns with a 3.5 yard average
