Zero. I hereby predict that every player who ever comes into the NFL will have some injury at some point.

So he got injury by staying in the pocket instead of scrambling out of the pocket and avoiding contact, which is how you repeatly insisted would be how he got injured.This was the play. Brown and Giacomini both lost their man
Is that the best critical comment you can make now? Just keep thinking that his style of play, hopefully mostly now driven by poor Oline play, does not place him at high risk for injury. He has only played 6 1/2 games. If he does get a good Oline when he returns and continues this exact style, don't be surprised if he ends up in a bad place again. This play was a blitz which he did not read, and Brown and Giacomini couldn't contain their man with the obvious end result.
Yes I have. With partial tears, depending on there severity, some feel excruciating pain when it occurs while some simply a slight twinge with only residual soreness. Just like Watson finished the 2014 Clemson final game with a partial tear he sustained in a previous practice, so does it also appear that he did with the Seahawks game. It is not unusual to be able to play with a partially torn ACL............not smart, but can be done.
Well, they should consider them anyway. If they draft 'em with a severe injury history, they're all crazy.
Watch the play real time.
WTF? His style of play? He was in the pocket, just like you keep whining about. If he had read the blitz, I wish he would have scrambled and avoided the hits, instead he did exactly what you would recommend if he did read the blitz - stay in the pocket and get crushed. I think the style of avoiding hits is better, but since you have joined the steelb "the Texans are always wrong about everything" club you seem to disagree.
Not you that was whining about the Duane Brown thing, but I didn't feel like quoting the hundreds of people who did say that. You are the one who pointed out that he got injured when Duane Brown failed on his block.
We ALL (myself included although some cannot force themselves to believe it because I am typically the bearer of bad news here) share you feeling of loss of a great young talent. Thanks for your words.
That looks like the play that did it. I remember CnD mention something about it in the game day thread.
I honestly mean nothing against you personally, but this is complete BS. Is it possible he partially tore it in the game? Sure. But there is no way you know what play in which he did. I appreciate all the effort on injury updates and estimated recovery times, etc. BUT predicting further injury to Texans players and going as far as claiming you know the play he was injured on...I do not appreciate. The Texans have an educated medical staff that doesn’t google search for information. They would’ve seen this if a fan on Texans talk can. But they didn’t and neither did you or anyone else.This was the play. Brown and Giacomini both lost their man
You do realize most of the players in the draft or even in the league have injury histories don’t you? Very few players make it to the pros without getting injured along the way. If he were to only draft players with no injury history it would be a very small pool of players.
Our most realistic chances for the POs went out the window in the game when both Watt & Merilus were injured and as result went IR, but no of course we shouldn't go wobbly on DW now because he does have heart, he's a fighter who deserves our faith & support.
A partial list of Astros with a history of injuries: Verlander, Keuchel, McCullers, Morton, McHugh, Springer, Bregman, Altuve, and Correa. Be sure and spit your vemon on the Astros if they EVER re-sign any of these "Texan type" players.
