Wade Woodaz, a linebacker for the Houston Texans, sustained a thumb injury during the team's preseason victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. According to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, Woodaz's injury occurred on Thursday night and he is currently listed as day-to-day.
Despite the injury, Woodaz is expected to return to the field soon, potentially wearing a cast. In the same game, he made a significant impact by intercepting a pass from quarterback Fernando Mendoza and returning it for an 80-yard touchdown. This performance has contributed to his positive momentum as the regular season approaches.
As a fourth-round rookie, Woodaz is anticipated to serve as the primary depth option at middle linebacker, backing up Azeez Al-Shaair. Further details regarding his recovery timeline and return to play are not yet clear.
