A few minutes after the kickoff, he went for a tackle on the Texans running back Dameon Pierce. That’s when he lost his balance and slid onto the field. After staying on the ground for some time, he came off the field, holding his arm. It was worrisome for the fans as he headed straight to the medical tent.

The way he slid, there were high chances that he might have injured his arm or dislocated his shoulder. The medical team later confirmed those rumors when it announced him ‘ questionable to return‘ for the game because of a shoulder injury. Fans are worried that his season might be over and the injury might require surgery. Later, after the halftime, he was declared ‘out‘ of the game.

Before that, he was active in the field. Going for tackles, he and WR KaVontae Turpin got into an argument with the Texans’ CB MJ Stewart. The trio had a heated argument with a lot of shoving and punishing. But the officials didn’t give any flag.

After halftime, they scored a field goal again in the 3rd quarter, taking the score to 20-10. It’s game time. The team has to get back quickly and follow their plans. Cooper Rush is trying his best to take them to victory. While Donovan Wilson is trying to fill Markquese Bell’s shoes for them on the field, the game is tough.

They are already struggling at 3-6 while the Texans are much better at 6-4. Can they turn around this game? Everything depends on the locker room mindset. They have been down for long. One win can instill a victory spark.
