Texans RB Miller carted off early with injury

Houston Texans starting running back Lamar Miller was taken off the field on a cart during the first quarter of the team's preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday.

On first down, Miller was tackled by Cowboys tackle Maliek Collins, and hit just above the knee. Miller grabbed his left leg and was checked out by the medical staff. He was eventually carted off.

Miller has been the Texans' lead back since 2016. In 14 games last season, he ran for 973 yards on 210 carries and five touchdowns.
