Rob Gronkowski Expected To Play Against Texans

A broken thumb apparently isn’t going to slow down Houston Texans DE J.J. Watt, who’s suiting up for Sunday night’s matchup against the New England Patriots with cast on his left arm.

Tight end Rob Gronkowski won’t merely travel with the New England Patriots for their game Sunday night against the Houston Texans, he’ll be on the active roster. And the offensive line, which has had its share of injuries all season, can only hold up for so long.

The Patriots also have one of the highest net points totals in the league, scoring 375 points compared to allowing 247 points, for 128 net points. The last time they lose three games in a row was in 2002. The Texans only managed two field goals and 189 total yards during the entire game. Belichick has a history of getting injured players back on the field for the Friday workouts to see how they’ll recover from one practice over the weekend before they try to amp it up the following week. “Whatever he decides to do out there, we follow it and we try to make the play for him”, said tight end Michael Williams. Asked about Hoyer, a backup quarterback in New England for three years, McCourty said, “He was a leader on the team”.

The Patriots took a 7-0 lead when former Texan Martin got away from rookie Kevin Johnson and was wide open in the end zone for a two-yard touchdown.

-Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Justin Houston will miss Sunday’s game against the San Diego Chargers due to a knee injury. Edelman has been a bad loss, but the Gronk one is the worst one. After that report, NFL Network said the decision was more defined, and Gronkowski will indeed play. That group needs to play better in these final four games, especially with a first-round playoff bye at stake.
