Texans safety returns from painful bruised lung
Houston Texans safety Jalen Pitre looks on during pre-game warm-ups before an NFL football game against the Baltimore Ravens, Sunday, Sept. 10, 2023, in Baltimore. – Backpedaling, breaking on the football and running next to his teammates, Texans safety and team captain Jalen Pitre was a happy man Wednesday morning after being medically cleared to practice again.
Pitre didn’t think right away that he was hurt badly. He took an inadvertent left knee to the chest from Jackson, a former NFL MVP, on the play. Then, he went to the sideline and took a knee before being examined by trainers and heading inside to the locker room at M&T Bank Stadium for further evaluation. When he was informed he was going to the hospital, it sank it that this was serious.
It was extremely difficult for Pitre to sit still and heal and miss the past two games with the injury. At the same time, he didn’t want his frustration at not being able to play against the Indianapolis Colts and Jacksonville Jaguars to dampen his teammates’ mood. “It’s going to be exciting,” Pitre said. “Jimmie is a good player and a guy I look up to, so it’s going to be good to out there and play with him. Really, the whole defense, we look forward to going out there on Sundays and play as a unit. I’m excited to be back out there and I’m really grateful I’m clear now.”
Playing against Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett means being ready for a lot of play-action passes. His most dangerous target is wide receiver George Pickens.
