Azeez Al-Shaair’s availability became uncertain as the Houston Texans entered their road game against the Indianapolis Colts with an 0-2 record. The Pro Bowl middle linebacker suffered a groin injury during the contest and was listed as questionable to return. No further injury details were provided.
Houston opened the season with home defeats against the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. Before the season, many analysts had viewed the Texans’ defense as one of the NFL’s strongest units, but the source said it struggled in both games. Against Indianapolis, Houston trailed 10-0 by the latter part of the first half.
The Texans recovered from a slow beginning last season and reached the playoffs. Following the Colts game, Houston is scheduled to return home next week for a matchup with the Dallas Cowboys. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET.
