Texans RB David Montgomery ruled out with groin injury vs. Titans

The Texans lost running back David Montgomery for the rest of Sunday's game against the Titans, downgrading him to out with a groin injury.

Montgomery went down in the first half and was ruled out shortly after, leaving Houston's rushing attack in the hands of Woody Marks for the remainder of the contest.

The injury thins the Texans' backfield as they face Tennessee, with Marks now carrying the load the rest of the way. Montgomery had been a central piece of Houston's ground game, and his departure puts added weight on the run attack — and on Marks — for the rest of the afternoon.
