Dominique Easley's rookie season ended with a trip to the injured reserve on Dec. 17, 2104.
Nearly a year later, his sophomore campaign — which had been impressive — ends with a trip to the IR again, according to CSNNE's Tom Curran.
Easley suffered a thigh injury during the third quarter of the Patriots' win against the Texans Sunday. It was an odd injury; he essentially collapsed while rushing against Houston center Ben Jones. He lay on the field for several minutes. Once he got to the sideline, trainers examined his leg and he eventually went to the stationary bike.
