In a 37-21 beatdown, the Texans came out relatively unscathed. They had one major injury. Free agent Vincent Taylor had a great preseason, and was consistently pushing the pocket, and holding down the interior of the run game. Later in the game, he was on the ground, holding his ankle, and eventually carted off. The results are in. Taylor will require ankle surgery and is headed to the injured reserve. He will be out for the next six to eight weeks.
The Lord taketh and the Lord giveth. Although Houston lost Taylor, slot wide receiver Anthony Miller is scheduled to return against Cleveland this week.
