The Houston Texans were trailing the Indianapolis Colts 10-0 late in the first half of their road matchup when middle linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair left with a groin injury. His status for the rest of the game was listed as questionable, and no further injury details were provided. Al-Shaair is a Pro Bowl defender.
Houston began the season with home defeats against the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. The defense had been regarded by many analysts as one of the NFL’s strongest units before the season, but the source said it struggled in both losses. The Texans entered the Colts game at 0-2.
Houston rebounded from a slow start last season and advanced to the playoffs. Following the Colts game, the Texans are scheduled to return home next week for a meeting with the Dallas Cowboys. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET. The report was published by clutchpoints.com.
