Texans Star Edge Rusher Will Anderson Jr. Leaves Game Vs. Jets With an Ankle Injury

In a devastating blow to the Houston Texans, star edge rusher Will Anderson Jr. was forced to leave Sunday’s game against the New York Jets with an ankle injury. The injury occurred in the first quarter of the game, when Anderson was chasing down Jets quarterback Zach Wilson on a pass rush.

Anderson, who has been a standout player for the Texans this season, was seen limping off the field with the help of trainers. The severity of the injury is still unknown, but early reports suggest that it could be a significant setback for the young star.

Fans and teammates alike were visibly concerned for Anderson, who has quickly become a leader on the Texans defense. His absence was immediately felt on the field, as the Jets were able to exploit the Texans’ defense without their star pass rusher.

Head coach David Culley expressed his disappointment at losing Anderson to injury, but remained optimistic about his recovery. “Will is a tough player and a hard worker, so I have no doubt that he will bounce back from this setback,” Culley said in a post-game press conference.

As the Texans await further updates on Anderson’s injury, the team will have to regroup and find a way to fill the void left by their star edge rusher. With several key games coming up in the schedule, the Texans will need to find a way to overcome this setback and continue their push for a playoff spot.

Stay tuned for more updates on Will Anderson Jr.’s injury and his potential return to the field.
