The Houston Texans will be without TE Owen Daniels when they face the Chicago Bears Sunday night at Solider Field. He has a back injury.
The injury will mean more playing time for TE Garrett Graham. Daniels is a big part of Houston's offense with 39 catches and five TDs. For Daniels, it's particularly disappointing since he played high school ball in suburban Naperville, IL (Naperville Central).
The Texans also are without nose tackle Shaun Cody, who had been ruled out already due to a rib injury. Earl Mitchell will start at the nose for Cody. It's the first NFL start for Mitchell, who is in his third season.
