The Houston Texans entered their road game against the Indianapolis Colts with an 0-2 record and trailed 10-0 late in the first half. The game also left the team awaiting an update on middle linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair.
Al-Shaair, a Pro Bowl player, injured his groin during the contest. Houston listed him as questionable for the rest of the game, and no additional information about the injury was provided.
The Texans began the season with losses at home to the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. Many analysts had considered Houston’s defense one of the NFL’s strongest units before the season, but the source reported that the group struggled in both games. Houston had also overcome a difficult opening stretch last season before making the playoffs.
Following the Colts game, the Texans are scheduled to host the Dallas Cowboys next week, with kickoff set for 1 p.m. ET. ClutchPoints was the source of the report.
