Texans DE Charles Omenihu injured his hamstring in 27-25 win over the Jaguars
By Mark Lane, TexansWire

Excerpt: In the second quarter with 8:20 until halftime, Omenihu was injured on a first-and-10 run from running back James Robinson that gained eight yards. The blow was significant as the Texans were already lacking in their edge defense due to outside linebackers Jacob Martin and Whitney Mercilus being on the COVID-19 reserve.

The Texans also lost outside linebacker Brennan Scarlett with an arm injury. On offense, the Texans had running back David Johnson and guard Senio Kelemete both sustain concussions.

Pre-Game Texans vs. Jaguars: Week 9

A bright spot with COVID-2020 is that this game isn’t in London at like 9 a.m., but the downside is that a Texans win helps the Jaguars continue the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes. A depleted Texans defense might be the difference today, though. Also: I’ve placed a “flying” easter egg into the article’s Jags stadium image. Can you spot it? If you do, please don’t give clues to the others! The 1st qtr. thread posts at 11:45 a.m. CT.
