Azeez Al-Shaair’s availability is uncertain after the Houston Texans linebacker sustained a groin injury during the team’s road game against the Indianapolis Colts. The Pro Bowl defender was listed as questionable to return, and no additional injury information was provided.

Houston began that game with an 0-2 record and trailed Indianapolis 10-0 late in the first half. The Texans had previously lost at home to Buffalo and Cincinnati. Their defense, widely considered by analysts to be among the NFL’s strongest entering the season, had difficulty in each of those two games.

Houston made the playoffs last season after recovering from a poor beginning. The Texans are set to face the Dallas Cowboys at home next week, with kickoff scheduled for 1 p.m. ET.
