Patterson (concussion) was a full practice participant Friday and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against Detroit.
Patterson was diagnosed with a concussion Week 8, which forced him out for the Week 9 loss to the Jets. He was a full practice participant all week, and after gaining clearance from an independent neurologist, he's exited the five-step concussion protocol. The 2023 sixth-round pick out of Notre Dame is expected to start at center while Juice Scruggs moves to left guard, replacing Kenyon Green (shoulder), who was placed on injured reserve.

Texans' Jarrett Patterson: Won't play in Week 9
Rotowire
Patterson (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Jets.
Patterson was unable to practice all week after sustaining a concussion in the Texans' Week 8 win over the Colts, so it's no surprise he won't suit up Thursday night. Expect 2022 first-round pick Kenyon Green to get the starting nod at left guard while Patterson is sidelined in Week 9.

Texans' Jarrett Patterson: Ruled out due to concussion
Rotowire
Patterson suffered a concussion during Sunday's Week 8 game against the Colts and has been ruled out from returning.
Patterson began the game on the bench but entered at left guard in the first half in place of the struggling Kenyon Green. However, with Patterson done for the day, Green has reentered the contest. The Texans play on Thursday Night Football in Week 9, so it might be difficult for Patterson to clear the NFL's concussion protocol in time to suit up for that game against the Jets.

Texans' Jarrett Patterson: Won't return this season
Rotowire
Patterson (lower leg) is out for the remainder of the season, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Patterson was expected to miss between six and eight weeks after undergoing surgery to repair a fractured fibula, which would put him in line to return in late December or early January. However, it appears that the Notre Dame will fall on the latter end of that timeline and ultimately not return in his rookie campaign.

Texans' Jarrett Patterson: Starting center on depth chart
Rotowire
Patterson is listed as the top center on the depth chart heading into Week 1 against Baltimore.
The Texans lost two centers during camp and preseason. Patterson steps in for Juice Scruggs (leg, IR) and Scott Quessenberry (torn ACL), who will miss the season. Houston is also down a left tackle, as Tytus Howard (hand) is out for the first four weeks. And last season's starting left guard, Kenyon Green (shoulder) is out for the season. That's a lot of change for a team that's expected to run as often as it can. Patterson, a rookie, was a four-year starter for Notre Dame.
