Houston Texans quarterback Graham Mertz leaves Thursday night’s game with a knee injury, and multiple reports indicate the issue is believed to be a torn ACL. The injury is described as serious enough that it could end his season.
The sources frame the situation as a likely season-ending problem for the second-year quarterback, though they do not provide confirmed diagnostic results within the reports. One outlet also notes that Mertz is expected to be unavailable for the remainder of the campaign, which would affect Houston’s quarterback depth moving forward. Additional updates would typically depend on team medical evaluation and imaging outcomes.
