Kenyon Green wants to play and prove everyone wrong

Though a decision has not been made, Green is in play to start at left guard Sunday against Miami, along with backup offensive lineman Zach Thomas, whom the Texans claimed off waivers last month. The two have been rotating reps.

When asked Monday whether Green could start, coach DeMeco Ryans said the team would evaluate the situation as the week progressed.

Left tackle Laremy Tunsil said "it's next-man-up mentality" for the offensive line, and added that it's a good opportunity for Green to prove everyone wrong if he does get the start over Thomas.

"(Kenyon Green) is coming in every practice and all the meetings with the right mindset to prove everyone wrong," Tunsil said. On Wednesday, Ryans said he's looking for accountability in deciding who will start at left guard and player who will do things the right way.
