Wade Woodaz, a linebacker for the Texans, suffered a broken thumb during a preseason matchup with the Raiders. According to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, he is currently listed as day-to-day while he recovers from the injury. Woodaz is expected to return to practice soon, wearing a cast.

Despite the injury, Woodaz had an impressive performance in the game, making a notable play by intercepting a pass from Fernando Mendoza and running it back for an 80-yard touchdown. As a fourth-round rookie, he is projected to be the main backup at middle linebacker, supporting Azeez Al-Shaair as the season approaches. Details regarding the timeline for his recovery remain unclear.
