NFL Week 2: Injury updates for Texans and Bengals

Overview

As the NFL approaches Week 2, injury concerns for the Houston Texans and Cincinnati Bengals have intensified.

In Houston, star wide receiver Nico Collins has been ruled out for the matchup against the Bengals after suffering a Grade 1 hamstring strain during Wednesday’s practice. Although the injury is not considered serious, Collins was unable to participate in Thursday or Friday practices. His absence adds to a growing list of Texans injuries that includes wide receivers Jayden Higgins (ACL) and Tank Dell (knee), as well as defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (knee), offensive guard Ed Ingram (groin), and linebacker Jacob Hummel (groin). To address these roster challenges, the Texans may utilize practice squad players such as Mitchell Tinsley, Kayshon Boutte, or Xavier Hutchinson.

In Cincinnati, quarterback Joe Burrow continues to manage “back tightness” following the season opener, though he has expressed his intention to play. Additionally, defensive end Shemar Stewart is expected to make his season debut this Sunday after recovering from a knee injury sustained during training camp.
