The Houston Texans’ injury concerns have grown ahead of Sunday’s Week 10 road matchup against the Cleveland Browns, with running back David Montgomery and cornerback Jaylin Smith among the players affected.
Montgomery has been dealing with a groin injury, while Smith continues to recover from a hamstring injury. Both carried questionable designations Friday despite finishing the practice week as full participants.
The 3-5 Texans already faced several confirmed absences as they prepared for the trip to Huntington Bank Field. Saturday brought additional changes to their availability report.
Houston’s official public relations account shared an update Saturday on X, formerly Twitter, announcing that Montgomery and Smith would not travel and had been ruled out. The team also listed offensive tackle Braden Smith as questionable with an illness.
The following story is in development and will be updated shortly.
