According to DJ Bien-Aime, Texans OL Kendrick Green is out indefinitely after tearing his meniscus in Week 4 against the Steelers.
It’s the latest injury for Houston’s offensive line which has been absolutely riddled this year. The Texans traded for Green after losing 2022 first-round G Kenyon Green for the season.
Green, 24, was a three-year starter at Illinois, a second-team All-American, and a first-team All-Big Ten in 2020. The Steelers drafted Green with pick No. 87 overall in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft.
Green signed a four-year, $4,875,766 rookie contract that included a $906,011 signing bonus. He was in the third year of that deal when Pittsburgh traded him to the Texans for a late-round pick.
In 2023, Green appeared in four games and made three starts for the Texans at guard.
