Henry To’oTo’o is expected to be out for a period after sustaining a shoulder injury in the Houston Texans’ 36-31 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. Coach DeMeco Ryans disclosed the development Sept. 14.
To’oTo’o exited in the fourth quarter, with the result still undecided, and did not return. He finished with two tackles. The linebacker made 95 total tackles in the 2025 season after surpassing 100 in 2024.
The injury creates another issue for Houston’s linebacker unit. Troy Chapman of Over The Cap wrote on X that the development appeared consistent with To’oTo’o having been seen in a sling. Garret Williams, who posts as Houston Stressans, identified Wade Woodaz and Jake Hansen as potential choices, though Hansen was also injured during the game.
No further information about To’oTo’o’s injury was released. The report is based on information from heavy.com.
