The Houston Texans started reserve offensive lineman Greg Mancz as their left guard after it was announced that starting left guard Senio Kelemete would be unable to play against the New York Giants due to a knee injury.
Houston missed Kelemete as the Giants were able to get to quarterback Deshaun Watson with ease. Watson is taking too many hits, some are self-inflicted, but they could still lead him to miss games this season.
Wide receiver Bruce Ellington also missed the majority of the game after suffering a hamstring injury early in the first quarter of the game.
