Oh look, even more bad news.
#Texans injury report says DeAndre Hopkins missed today's practice with a concussion. That is a big thing to watch.

Words cannot express just how depleted this Texans offense might be if DeAndre Hopkins cannot suit up on Sunday. Their All-Pro left tackle, Duane Brown, is still managing a thumb injury that kept him out of last weekend's game against the Panthers, fellow All-Pro running back Arian Foster is also day-to-day while he recovers from groin surgery, and presumed starting left guard Xavier Su'a-Filo is still fighting his way back from a nasty high ankle sprain that has left him on the bench for over a month now. If Hopkins can't go, Ryan Mallett is going to walk into a shootout with Jameis Winston carrying a gun that has no bullets.
I already hate this season so, so much.
