Although no touchdowns were scored, the Texans offense started off well against the Denver Broncos, and it looked like Stroud was about to have a very impressive day, until he suffered a concussion on a late-slide attempt that will now keep him out this weekend against the Jaguars.
Houston’s defense has been great all year, they just need some help on offense, and that help may not be happening this season.
An already beat down Texans team is set to be without several pieces. Here is a look at Friday’s injury report:
-DB Jalen Pitre (Concussion) OUT
-QB C.J. Stroud (Concussion) OUT
-RT Tytus Howard (Concussion) OUT
-RG Ed Ingram (Knee) OUT
-K Ka’imi Fairbairn (Quad) OUT
-LB Christian Harris (Shin) OUT
-WR Braxton Berrios (Chest)
-RB Nick Chubb (Foot)
-RB Dameon Pierce (Personal)
-FB Jakob Johnson (Hamstring) OUT
-DE Will Anderson Jr. (Quad)
-TE Dalton Schultz (Knee / Shoulder)
-TE Harrison Bryant (Shoulder) QUESTIONABLE
-DE Dylan Horton (Knee)
-DE Denico Autry (Knee)
The Texans have an extremely long injury report this week, and will be down several starters. The quarterback situation will be one to monitor, with Davis Mills getting the start. Mills looked solid in the first half of the Broncos game, and after adjustments were made, things fell apart.
Houston will be going up against an also beat up Jaguars team, and it feels like it will be another defensive battle.
