Houston Texans Tuesday injury report.
The (6-2) Houston Texans are coming off a clutch win against the Indianapolis Colts, and are now heading to New York to take on the (2-6) Jets on Thursday Night Football.
Houston is set to be without their top-two wide receivers, Nico Collins and Stefon Diggs. Collins is on injured-reserve and Diggs suffered a torn-ACL against the Colts.
Here is a look at Houston’s Tuesday injury report:
Who knows what the future holds for us Colts’ fans
I did not expect that, everything the Colts have said has indicated that they would give AR the time and patience to develop, fully understanding that this is a young quarterback with very little experience, and that there will be some rough patches along the way. That seems to have been a lie, because it looks like the team will ride the rest of the season with Joe Flacco at quarterback.
Is Flacco a better quarterback than Richardson right now? 100% yes, I don’t think anyone questions that. Now is...
The Colts have thrown in the towel on Anthony Richardson as the starter during the interim, as the team hopes to make a stronger playoff push under longtime veteran Joe Flacco.
The Indianapolis Colts finally caved, as struggling 2nd-year starter Anthony Richardson, with just 10 career starts under his belt, was benched in favor of longtime NFL veteran Joe Flacco.
To his credit, the Colts passing game is much more efficient with Flacco behind center, than it is with the clearly still raw Richardson—but at what expense to the Indy ground game, as the latter’s dynamic dual-threat ability opens up...
A quarterback change is coming for the Indianapolis Colts.
After much speculation surrounding a possible change at quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts, the team made their decision Tuesday afternoon, opting to bench second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson for veteran backup Joe Flacco, per multiple reports. ESPN’s Adam Schefter was the first to report the news.
According to Schefter and other reports, the Colts’ coaches came together to make this decision on benching Richardson.
Flacco is now expected to start on Sunday Night Football against the Minnesota Vikings. The 39-year-old has appeared in three games for the Colts this season, with two...
Get well soon, Stefon.
We were all prepared for the worst when we saw Stefon Diggs come up hobbling after a non-contact injury on the infamously unfriendly field of NRG Stadium. And now the hammer has been dropped.
Per DeMeco Ryans at his Tuesday press conference, and confirmed by several other members of the Houston sports media, Stefon Diggs has torn his ACL and will miss the remainder of the season.
Remember just a scant two months ago how we were laughing at the embarrassment of riches the Houston Texans had at wide receiver? “We just have too many good...
A busy news day in the AFC South
I want to laugh at the Indianapolis Colts. They took a guy who was not a good quarterback with the 4th overall pick in the draft. He has continued his streak of not being a good quarterback and now has been benched after tapping out in the loss against the Houston Texans on Sunday.
However, I can’t laugh at them because they are 4-4 while the Tennessee Titans are 1-6. But hey, at least our bad second-year quarterback was a second-round pick and doesn’t quit in the middle of a game.
Remember...
Gus Logue is joined by Hays Carlyon in the latest Duval Rundown show to discuss Jaguars injury ramifications from Week 8.
Check out episode 25 of Duval Rundown, hosted by Gus Logue.
Gus was joined by 1010XL radio host Hays Carlyon to discuss Christian Kirk’s season-ending injury and Jacksonville Jaguars players who must step up in his absence.
Hays:
“It obviously starts with Parker Washington. He’s shown some comfort, some chemistry with Trevor [Lawrence], had a nice camp and was able to play last year as a rookie. I didn’t think he played particularly well, but at least he...
Reviewing how the Colts’ players improved or decreased their position on the team.
First game back from injury and Taylor delivered, being probably the only offensive player that had a good game against the Texans. The running back finished the game with over 100 rushing yards and a touchdown, and overall looked a step above the rest. One can only wonder how he only got 20 carries while there were 32 passing attempts.
Impressive game from Dayo, who if just could put this sort of performances more consistently would be one...
The overall results were mixed, but two major plays stood out.
The Indianapolis Colts were seemingly never out of the game against the Houston Texans on Sunday. Through much of the first half, it actually felt like they held the advantage and were the better team. Yes, Anthony Richardson had his issues, but his completion percentage doesn’t tell the whole story as the majority of his passes were on target but broken up. The defense applied pressure on C.J. Stroud and didn’t allow him to become overly comfortable. The majority of the game was manageable for the Colts, but two...
A victory, however costly, however stressful, is a victory nevertheless.
The Day After the Day After...when the raw, immediate emotions from the aftermath of a game diminish into the realm of clarity and the proverbial (or literal) hangover no longer haunts the mind. With that, a review of Week 8:
WR depth: Coming into the season, the WR room rated as the strongest overall group on the team. With Diggs, Collins and Dell at the top three slots, the quality of depth on the roster portended either a lot of happy WRs stat-wise, or some quality trade bait for the...
This will probably be the last time the Titans are favored this year.
Man, things must be really bad for the New England Patriots. The Tennessee Titans are a 3-point favorite over at FanDuel Sportsbook. Of course, that just means that Vegas has these two teams as even and the Titans are getting the three because the game is in Nashville. I can’t imagine anyone could stomach betting their hard-earned money on the Titans after what we have seen the last couple of weeks.
It will be interesting to see if this line moves at all when we know who...
The Colts lost a special teams safety to what appears to be a very significant knee injury.
On Monday, the Indianapolis Colts also announced that the team has placed safety Trevor Denbow (knee) on injured reserve and re-signed fellow safety Ronnie Harrison Jr. to the 53-man active roster.
The team also signed offensive tackle Sebastian Gutierrez and offensive guard Josh Sills to the practice squad and released offensive tackle Jack Wilson in a corresponding move.
Per the IndyStar’s Joel Erickson, Denbow suffered injuries to multiple ligaments and cartilage in his knee during the first quarter of Sunday’s road loss to...
