Texans receiver Will Fuller broke his collarbone during Wednesday's practice.
According to the Houston Chronicle, Fuller, the team's first-round draft pick in 2016, went up to catch a pass, came down and hit the ground hard.
He will undergo surgery and is out for 2-3 months.
Fuller was projected to start opposite DeAndre Hopkins.
As Profootballtalk.com notes, Fuller, a 2016 first-round pick, got off to a hot start last season with nine catches for 211 yards and a touchdown in the first two weeks of the season, but cooled off from there to finish with 47 catches for 635 yards and two touchdowns. Fuller had issues holding onto passes at times during the season, leading to hope that he could become a more productive complement to Hopkins if he could clear them up this offseason.
Today's injury will increase the wait time to see if that’s the case. Jaelen Strong and Braxton Miller will be in line for more work while Fuller is out of the picture.
