Houston tight end to undergo ACL surgery
Houston Texans tight end Owen Daniels has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with a knee injury.
Daniels, 26, suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during the first quarter of the Texans' 31-10 victory over the Buffalo Bills on November 1.
Houston head coach Gary Kubiak has confirmed Daniels requires an operation and will be placed on season-ending injured reserve.
"It's a big blow to our football team," Kubiak said.
"I just feel bad for him. He was having a tremendous season, a special football season, and we're going to miss him big-time."
Daniels had 40 receptions for 519 yards and a team-leading five touchdowns before being injured.
