Darryl Sharpton not ready to come off PUP

Texans ILB Darryl Sharpton (hip) is "not ready" to come off the PUP list.

Sharpton is first eligible to return in Week 7, but the Texans are hoping he'll be ready "in a couple weeks." Sharpton's return has taken on an added importance with Brian Cushing (torn ACL) out for the season. Sharpton could rotate snaps with veteran Tim Dobbins whenever he's finally ready to make his 2012 debut.
