Azeez Al-Shaair’s availability became uncertain during Houston’s road matchup with the Indianapolis Colts after the Pro Bowl middle linebacker sustained a groin injury. His status for the rest of the game was listed as questionable, and no additional injury details were provided.

The Texans entered the game with an 0-2 record after losing at home to the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. Houston trailed Indianapolis 10-0 late in the first half. The defense, considered by many analysts before the season to be among the NFL’s strongest units, had struggled in both of the team’s opening games, according to the source.

Houston recovered from a slow beginning last season and advanced to the playoffs. Following the Colts game, the Texans are scheduled to return home next week for a matchup with the Dallas Cowboys. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET. The report was published by clutchpoints.com.
