Dolphins vs. Texans injury report and starting lineup - November 7 | NFL Week 9

The Miami Dolphins will host the Houston Texans in the battle of one-win teams at Hard Rock Stadium.

The Dolphins' season has derailed completely since their opening day win over the New England Patriots. They have lost six on the bounce but could finally end their streak against an equally poor Houston Texans team.

The Texans were doomed even before the season began. Deshaun Watson's trade demand followed by the sexual misconduct allegations levied on him made him an expensive, unmovable asset. Houston signed Tyrod Taylor to fill in for Watson, but he too picked up an injury and has been sidelined since Week 2.

Both teams are desperate for a victory and neither would want to lose to a fellow one-win team. Ahead of this rather lackluster clash, here is the injury report and probable starting lineup for both teams:
