Texans’ Clowney questionable for Monday night

Published

on

Houston Texans linebacker Jadeveon Clowney is listed as questionable to play in Monday night’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers after being limited in practice for a second straight day Saturday.

Clowney underwent arthroscopic knee surgery on Sept. 8 for a torn meniscus after getting injured in a Week 1 win over the Washington Redskins. He returned to the practice field Friday and Texans coach Bill O’Brien said there was a “50-50” chance the No. 1 overall pick in the draft will play.

Clowney was asked Friday if he would be surprised if he didn’t play Monday night.

“No,” he replied. “It’s like I said, I’m taking it one day at time right now. I’ve been rehabbing, just trying to get back.”

Texans linebacker Mike Mohamed (calf) is also questionable to play after being limited all week. Cornerback Darryl Morris (anke) has been ruled out.

The Texans have 12 players listed as probable: running back Arian Foster (groin), wide receivers Andre Johnson (ankle) and DeAndre Hopkins (hand), guard Brandon Brooks (illness), center Chris Myers (not injury related), offensive tackle Derek Newton (elbow), defensive ends J.J. Watt (thigh) and Tim Jamison (groin), cornerback Johnathan Joseph (knee) and linebackers Brian Cushing (knee), Brooks Reed (groin) and Jeff Tarpinian (knee).

Steelers defensive ends Brett Keisel (knee) and Cameron Heyward (ankle), running back Will Johnson (illness) and safeties Mike Mitchell (knee) and Troy Polamalu (not injury related) practiced Saturday and are listed as probable on the team’s final injury report.

Steelers linebacker Ryan Shazier (knee) was limited Saturday and is listed as questionable. Safety Shamarko Thomas (hamstring) will join Steve McLendon (shoulder) and Ike Taylor (forearm) who have been listed as out for Week 7.
