Two days into Bill O'Brien's first training camp as the man in charge of your Houston Texans, and the roster keeps a' churnin', thanks in large part to injury:
Chris Myers told reporters that Cody White tore his Achilles yesterday. #Texans

WR Alan Bonner, who was waived injured, suffered a fractured foot.

Tough break for both Bonner and White. The former was thought to have a shot at unseating Keshawn Martin at return man; alas, he couldn't say on the field and we're left wondering what could have been. White, on the other hand, will look to rebound from one of the more devastating injuries a professional athlete can suffer. Best of luck to them as they try to get healthy and continue their football careers elsewhere.
UPDATE: Mark Berman reports that both Bonner and White made it through waivers, so the Texans placed them on Injured Reserve:
Texans sign OT Mike Farrell and RB Tim Cornett. Cut linebacker Ricky Sapp and placed receiver Alan Bonner and OL Cody White on IR.
