APTexans linebacker Brooks Reed suffered a groin injury in the first quarter of the Thanksgiving battle with the Lions.
Reed went down after appearing to strain something while running toward the sideline to make a tackle, and he was obviously in a lot of pain as he made his way back to the bench. He was replaced in the Texans’ defense by rookie Whitney Mercilus.
Reed wasn’t the only Texan experiencing groin pain: Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh accidentally (I think) kicked Texans quarterback Matt Schaub in the groin as Suh was falling to the ground as he attempted to pressure Schaub as Schaub threw a pass. Schaub was obviously in a lot of pain, but he stayed in the game.
Unlike last Thanksgiving, when Suh stomped Green Bay’s Evan Dietrich-Smith, Suh wasn’t penalized this time. But I’m betting the kick to Schaub’s groin hurt worse.

“accidental” kick to matt schaub’s junk. accidental…riiiiiiight.
in slo-mo it is obvious that it was not an accident. he suddenly kicks his foot out right when he gets to schwabs crotch. reminded me of that scene in “necessary roughness” when Kathy Ireland racked that one guy.
Accidentally, my ass.
tied it up
I thought it was an accident at first, but after seeing the replay, Suh seems to extend his leg – I’m reserving judgement for now.
The Lions DL is having a good time right now.
Wow I hate when media tries to make a story out of nothing…it was an accident…relax
I agree it looked like he “pushed off” or wahtever you want to call it.
I also don’t know if he had intention to hurt Schaub while brining him down shortly before, the 2nd TD for the Texans.
Im done giving him the benefit of the doubt though.
yeah…. definitely not accidental. his leg is falling naturally then suddenly speeds up from the knee downward. needs to be suspended
Wow, you people are ridiculous. If you had a pair of eyes you could clearly see t was clearly an accident. He was looking the complete other way. Lmao you people just see what you wanna see, no different from the media.
Hope all you texans fans are enjoying Stafford’s clinic he’s putting on
Can we say overrrrrateddd
If JJ Watt had done that no one would have thought anything of it. And if the media hadn’t decided it was intentional no one else would have either. The media says what they think gets good ratings, this is ridiculous. Everything looks on purpose in slow motion
Groin injuries, one of the worst to get over. 7 weeks in, and i am still hobbled.
Time for everyone to feign anger and outrage about another non-incident with Suh. I can’t wait for all the ingenious comments that are sure to follow. I’m sure you’re all just OUTRAGED!
