Houston’s next game will be at home against the Dallas Cowboys after the Texans opened the season 0-2. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET.

The team trailed the Indianapolis Colts 10-0 late in the first half of their road game. Middle linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, a Pro Bowl defender, suffered a groin injury during the contest. His availability for the rest of the game was listed as questionable, and no additional injury information was provided.

Houston began the season with losses at home to Buffalo and Cincinnati. The defense entered the year with a reputation that several analysts considered among the NFL’s strongest, but the source said it struggled in both games. The Texans made the playoffs last season after overcoming an early downturn.
