Deshaun Watson and the Houston Texans jumped out to a 21-10 lead against the New England Patriots before halftime on Sunday at NRG Stadium. However, things haven't been easy for the Houston offense during the second half, and there's an explanation for it.

Wide receivers Randall Cobb and Kenny Still have both been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game with a foot and leg injury, respectively.

Stills hadn't caught a pass before injuring his leg, but Cobb had two receptions for seven yards and a touchdown before injuring his foot.

In their absences, Keke Coutee came in and caught a touchdown pass to help widen Houston's lead.

The severity of the injuries isn't yet known and we should find out more following the conclusion on Sunday's contest.
