HOUSTON -- Texans coach Bill O'Brien said he doesn't expect wide receiver Keke Coutee (ankle) or backup quarterback AJ McCarron (thumb) to be back "soon" for the Texans.
"Tomorrow? No. A week from now? Probably not," O'Brien said. "And so we'll just keep playing it by ear."
Coutee left the Texans' preseason opener against the Packers with an ankle injury after he was tackled in the second quarter. Coutee was checked out by the medical staff and helped off the field. The second-year receiver later sent, and then deleted, a tweet saying, "Y'all can say what ya'll want to behind this screen, but ya'll never spent a day in my shoes.
