Texans owner: Cushing 'ahead of schedule'
Brian Cushing - LB - Houston Texans
Feb. 6, 2013 - 4:30 PM ET

Texans owner Bob McNair says ILB Brian Cushing (torn ACL) is "ahead of schedule" in his rehab.

You rarely hear that a player is "behind schedule," but it's good news nonetheless. The Texans defense wasn't the same after Cushing went down in Week 5, and would greatly benefit from him getting in a full training camp. However, even if the indications are good that Cushing will avoid the reserve/PUP list to begin the season, it's quite possible he'll open camp on active/PUP.
