Texans’ Smith and Gaye Carted Off | Houston Texans News

Two Houston Texans stars, starting right tackle Braden Smith and defensive end Ali Gaye, were carted off during joint practice with the Carolina Panthers — both heading to the locker room together on the same cart. Details on their injuries remain unclear, with coach DeMeco Ryans withholding specifics. Smith, a key veteran signed to a $25M deal, has started over 100 games; Gaye, an undrafted rookie, is younger and less experienced. With the preseason finale against the Panthers looming Friday, fans hope the injuries aren’t season-ending as the regular season approaches. Updates will be closely monitored.
