The Houston Texans are scheduled to return home next week against the Dallas Cowboys, with kickoff set for 1 p.m. ET. The matchup follows Houston’s 0-2 start and a 10-0 deficit late in the first half against the Indianapolis Colts.
Middle linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair sustained a groin injury during the game. The Pro Bowl defender was listed as questionable to come back before the contest ended, and no additional injury details were provided.
Houston began the season with home defeats against the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. Entering the year, many analysts considered the Texans’ defense one of the NFL’s strongest units, but ClutchPoints reported that the defense had difficulty in each of those games. Houston had also overcome a poor opening stretch last season before reaching the playoffs.
