The Houston Texans have placed wide receiver Bruce Ellington and inside linebacker Dylan Cole on the injured reserve entering Week 4 as Ellington has struggled with injuries since entering the league in 2014.
Sadly this season wasn’t an outlier, and Ellington struggled with a hamstring injury versus the New York Giants in Week 3. Ellington has had a history with hamstring injuries, so the Texans were already rolling with a deep number of wide receivers on the depth chart.
The Texans still have five wide receivers on the roster after placing Ellington on the IR.
