On the same day that Texans quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick suffered a broken leg, his replacement emerged from the game with an injury of his own.
Via John McClain of the Houston Chronicle, rookie Tom Savage will undergo on MRI after apparently injuring a knee on the next-to-last play of the the Texans’ loss at Indianapolis.
The injury prompted punter Shane Lechler to warm up, in the event Savage couldn’t continue. If Savage can’t play on Sunday, he’d be replaced by Thad Lewis (who was inactive today) or whoever else the Texans can find on short notice for next Sunday’s visit from the Ravens.
