Texans and Buccaneers Announce Inactives for Monday Night Football

The anticipation builds as the Houston Texans and Tampa Bay Buccaneers prepare to clash in the first game of an exciting Week 2 doubleheader on Monday Night Football. As the teams finalize their rosters, both have released their inactives list, shedding light on who will be sidelined for this pivotal matchup.

Texans’ Inactives Highlight Key Absences

The Houston Texans have confirmed their inactives for the game, and the list reveals some significant changes from their previous outing against the Los Angeles Rams. The Texans will be without:

WR Christian Kirk
WR Braxton Berrios
OG Jake Andrews
RB Dameon Pierce
QB Graham Mertz
DT Tommy Togiai

Kirk and Berrios are set to miss their second consecutive game due to hamstring injuries, delaying their debuts with the Texans until at least Week 3. In addition, Jake Andrews has been ruled out following an ankle injury sustained during Sunday’s contest. Andrews, who was the starting center in the season opener, will be replaced by backup Jarrett Patterson for this week’s game.

The most startling news from Houston, however, is the absence of veteran running back Dameon Pierce. After being part of the gameday roster in Los Angeles, Pierce now finds himself as a healthy scratch, making way for rookie British Brooks to take the field.

Buccaneers’ Inactives List Revealed

On the other side, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers also face their own challenges with their inactives list, which includes:

TE Devin Culp
WR Chris Godwin
WR Tez Johnson
RB Josh Williams
T Tristan Wirfs
S Rashad Wisdom

The Buccaneers will miss the services of standout wide receiver Chris Godwin, who continues to recover from injury. The absence of both Godwin and Johnson weakens their receiving corps, placing added pressure on quarterback Baker Mayfield to find other targets.

As the Texans and Buccaneers gear up for this showdown, fans will be watching closely to see how these roster adjustments impact the game dynamics. With key players missing from both sides, the stage is set for a competitive matchup that promises to keep fans on the edge of their seats.
