Hassan Ridgeway: Breaking News
The defensive tackle left the field after the first play of the second half and had trouble putting weight on his right leg, per Adam Wexler of SportsTalk 790 in Houston. Ridgeway had been filling in for Sheldon Rankins, who missed Sunday's game with a knee injury. Their absences may open up playing time for third-stringer Kurt Hinish.
Ridgeway was placed on IR after sustaining a calf injury in Week 1. He was designated to return Wednesday after logging a practice session and will be available for the Texans' Week 8 contest against the Panthers.
