Houston Texans offensive lineman Tytus Howard will be sidelined for the remainder of the season due to a knee injury sustained during the game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, which the Jaguars won. Following the injury, Howard is set to undergo surgery to address the issue.
Ian Rapoport from the NFL Network reported that Tytus Howard is expected to miss the rest of the season, confirming the need for surgery to repair his knee. This setback is considered a significant blow to the Houston offensive line.
This injury marks Howard’s second major setback of the season. He had previously missed four games due to a broken hand. Despite these challenges, Howard, a first-round draft pick in 2019, secured a three-year, $56 million contract extension in July, extending his commitment to the Texans through the 2026 season.
The Houston Texans, currently holding a 6-5 record for the season, have faced various injury challenges throughout the year, further complicating their performance on the field.
