Preview

What They Did Last Week:

Texans lost to the New England Patriots on the road, 27-20.

Titans lost to the Miami Dolphins on the road, 27-20.

Tennessee was banged up in Sunday’s seven-plus hour marathon in Miami, which after numerous lightning delays will officially go down as the longest game in NFL history. Leading the Titans’ injury list is tight end Delanie Walker, who dislocated his ankle and reportedly suffered ligament damage and will miss the remainder of the regular season. Walker will have surgery and have to work his way back onto the field next season.

In addition to Walker, Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota survived a scare Sunday in a 27-20 loss to the Dolphins. He was limited in practice all week with an elbow injury, but head coach Mike Vrabel said “barring a setback” he is good to go against the Texans. Second-year wide receiver Corey Davis was almost limited in practice this week with a hamstring injury, but was never a real threat to miss Week 2.

Houston had a prime chance to make a statement Week 1 in New England, but quickly fell behind and couldn’t live up to the challenge.

Coming off a torn ACL, Deshaun Watson struggled, botching a RPO on the first play of the game, which resulted in a fumble, and eventually finished 17-for-36 with 176 yards, one touchdown and an interception. Watson’s struggles were to be expected, as Houston’s skill group was a bit banged up, and offensive line has massive questions this season.

The Texans were without oft-injured wide receiver Will Fuller, who was limited in practice this week with a hamstring, but is more likely to play in Week 2, although a gameday/game-time decision. Pro Bowl wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, nursing a minor foot injury, had limited practice reps, but isn’t a threat to sit out Sunday.
