Report: Texans LT Laremy Tunsil not expected to play against the Colts

The Houston Texans may have to see what else they have in reserve to keep C.J. Stroud upright against the Indianapolis Colts.

According to Adam Schefter from ESPN, the Texans expect to be without three-time Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil in Week 2 as they host their AFC South rivals at NRG Stadium.

Houston tinkered with their game day activations to provide for such an accommodation. The Texans signed center-guard Michael Deiter from the practice squad to the active roster, and also deemed second-year tackle Austin Deculus as one of their two standard elevations from the practice squad.

Tunsil started all 17 games for Houston last season, the first time in the former Miami Dolphins 2016 first-round pick’s career he finished a season’s full complement of games.
