The Houston Texans faced significant injury concerns during their preseason finale against the Los Angeles Rams. Defensive back Kris Boyd was carted off with a bruised leg but is expected to avoid serious injury, while fellow defensive back Brandon Hill suffered a serious knee injury and will miss the entire 2024 season. Hill, a seventh-round pick in 2023, was vying for a roster spot after limited appearances last season. Quarterback Case Keenum also left the game for examination but walked off without issue. The Texans must finalize their roster cuts by Tuesday, raising uncertainty around Hill's position after his injury. These developments come as the Texans prepare for their season opener against the Indianapolis Colts on September 8.
