The Houston Texans were in a dog fight with the Indianapolis Colts when Stefon Diggs pulled up lame with a non-contact injury. The wide receiver clutched at his leg while running a route and dropped to the turf. He was attended to be trainers before eventually making his way into the locker room with a knee injury.
Diggs is the second premiere wideout to go down for the Texans this year as they’ve been without Nico Collins since Week 5 with a hamstring injury. The earliest he can return is Week 10 against the Detroit Lions.
Diggs entered the game with 42 catches for 415 yards and three touchdowns in his first season with the Texans. He’d caught five passes for 81 yards against the Colts before leaving the game in which Houston was a five-point favorite. Meanwhile, Diggs receiving props for the game were 59.5 yards, 5.5 catches, 20.5 longest receptions and +135 for an anytime touchdown.
