Default Injury to Texans' Brisiel appears to be season-ending

Well, it looks like we may get a glimpse of Caldwell whether we like it or not..... Starting O-Lineman #2 goes down for the year

From the chronic:

"Right guard Mike Brisiel suffered what’s expected to be a season-ending foot injury during Sunday’s 28-21 loss at Arizona.

Kasey Studdard replaced Pitts. Rookie Antoine Caldwell and veteran Chris White will compete to see who’s going to start in place of Brisiel, who played every snap last season when the Texans averaged 115.4 yards a game and 4.3 yards a carry.

Caldwell, 6-3, 305, is a third-round pick from Alabama who has played center and guard.

“He worked a bunch (at right guard),” Kubiak said. “He worked at center in training camp so he could (learn to make) the calls. Since then, he’s basically been working at guard.”

White, 6-2, 290, is a five-year veteran. "
