The Houston Texans are dealing with injury issues as they prepare for their upcoming preseason game against the Buffalo Bills. During a joint practice with the Las Vegas Raiders, wide receiver Jayden Higgins sustained a leg injury, prompting concern from teammates. Although he was seen in pain on the ground, he was able to walk off the field unaided.
Head coach DeMeco Ryans has not provided an immediate update on Higgins' status, indicating that evaluations are still in progress. Quarterback C.J. Stroud expressed his worries for Higgins, highlighting the player's impressive recent practice performances and hoping for a quick recovery.
The injury status of fellow wide receiver Jared Wayne remains uncertain, as no additional information has been released regarding his condition. Meanwhile, Jaylin Noel has returned to practice, but Tank Dell was not present, following previous discussions about his potential participation in future games. The Texans' wide receiver group is facing challenges this offseason, with Higgins being a significant contributor.
Further updates on the players' conditions are expected as the team continues its assessments.
