CINCINNATI (AP) -Texans defensive tackle Shaun Cody was inactive for a game against the Bengals after missing practice during the week with an illness.

Cody missed practice on Thursday after becoming sick. He had been listed as questionable for Sunday's game. Frank Okam started in his place.

The Bengals were missing Roy Williams, who has an injured forearm. Chinedum Ndukwe filled in at safety. Running back Brian Leonard (groin) and defensive lineman Frostee Rucker (ankle) also were inactive after missing the week of practice.
