Hummel was placed on injured reserve Sept. 26 due to the groin issue, which was significant enough to require a procedure. Though Hummel already missed the required four games while on IR, the Texans don't appear to be ready to open his 21-day practice window. Hummel could have a more realistic chance at practicing coming out of the Texans' Week 8 bye.
