Is Tyler Warren playing today?
There is no concrete answer to this question yet, so we'll have to make an educated guess.
Given the fact that Warren is only dealing with an illness and not a physical injury, we would say there's a very good chance he'll be ready to go on Sunday despite being a late addition to the injury report.

Entering Week 13, Warren ranks as TE7 overall in terms of fantasy points per game, which makes him a borderline TE1 and every-week starting option.
The Texans do present a tough matchup, as Houston is ceding the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to the position.
However, Warren has simply been too good this season to sit him under any circumstances. We would temper expectations, though.
Verdict: Start
