Wade Woodaz, a linebacker with the Texans, suffered a broken thumb during a preseason game against the Raiders, as reported by Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. He is currently listed as day-to-day while he recovers from the injury and is expected to return to practice soon, albeit in a cast.

In the same matchup, Woodaz showcased his skills by intercepting a pass from Fernando Mendoza and returning it for an impressive 80-yard touchdown. As a fourth-round rookie, he is projected to be the primary depth option at middle linebacker behind Azeez Al-Shaair as the regular season nears. Additional information regarding his recovery timeline has not been disclosed.
