Azeez Al-Shaair’s status became uncertain after the Houston Texans linebacker suffered a groin injury during the team’s road game against the Indianapolis Colts. The Pro Bowl defender was listed as questionable to return for the remainder of the contest, and no additional injury details were provided.

Houston entered the matchup with an 0-2 record and trailed Indianapolis 10-0 late in the first half. The Texans began the season with home defeats against the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. Their defense, which analysts had ranked among the NFL’s top units before the season, struggled in both games.

Houston had started slowly last season as well, but eventually qualified for the playoffs. Following the Colts game, the Texans are scheduled to return to Houston for a matchup with the Dallas Cowboys next week. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET.
