Wade Phillips has said that Case Keenum will return to the Houston Texans' starting lineup if he is healthy this weekend.
The quarterback missed last week's 37-13 defeat to the Denver Broncos with a thumb injury.
The team's interim head coach told reporters: "Case threw the ball his normal amount that he would throw today on a Thursday. Looked all right throwing the ball. We'll have to see tomorrow how sore he is, what complications could or could not come from him throwing full time today. So we'll just see about that.
"We'll just see how he is. But he would start if he's healthy. We should be clear tomorrow just how he feels.
"I think if he's all right and able to grip and throw it again tomorrow, then that's fine. If it starts bothering him again and he can't throw it as well, we'll probably have to make a decision."
Keenum has completed 1,760 passing yards since replacing Matt Schaub as starter.
