If doubts remain about his status for Sunday, Matt Schaub doesn't share them.

Schaub, the Houston Texans' starting quarterback, spent Tuesday night hospitalized and missed practice Wednesday before taking about half the repetitions in practice Thursday. Gary Kubiak, as he had said Wednesday, said Thursday he expects Schaub to play Sunday.

Schaub said he absolutely agrees.

"There is no doubt in my mind I'll be playing on Sunday," Schaub told HoustonTexans.com.

Schaub played the entire game Sunday in a 31-24 loss to Jacksonville, throwing for more than 300 yards and two touchdowns, then was hospitalized after his bursa sack flared up Tuesday.

Schaub told Nick Scurfield of HoustonTexans.com the injury has been an issue all season, but said the knee "feels good" after he received treatment Tuesday.

The Texans' injury report Thursday:

LB Xavier Adibi (hamstring, full participation), DE Mark Anderson (arm, full), LB Kevin Bentley (knee, full), G Mike Brisiel (ribs/knee, full), DT Shaun Cody (knee, full), TE Owen Daniels (hamstring, did not participate), LB Zac Diles (illness, DNP), CB Kareem Jackson (shin, full), WR Andre Johnson (ankle, limited),LB Stanford Keglar (quad, full), C Chris Myers (shoulder, limited), DE Jesse Nading (knee, DNP), QB Matt Schaub (knee, limited), P Matt Turk (r. hip, limited),WR Kevin Walter (knee, full) and DE Mario Williams (groin, limited).

Myers was added to the report Thursday. Johnson missed practice Wednesday.
