Rookie receiver Keke Coutee has been nothing short of a revelation at slot receiver for the Houston Texans this season.

However, after being taken out of Sunday’s 20-7 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars with a suspected hamstring injury, early reports suggest that he will not suit up for Houston’s upcoming Week 8 home game against the Miami Dolphins Thursday night..

Having had to wait until Week 4 to make his debut after suffering a strained hamstring in early August, he kicked off his NFL career with a 109 yard game against the Indianapolis Colts, following which he recorded 51 and 33 yards against the Dallas Cowboys and Buffalo Bills respectively.

His straight-line speed and elusiveness give the Texans a viable third option at receiver, as well as allowing them to mix up their play-calling, with Coutee often going in motion.

While the Texans will be relieved that this doesn’t appear to be a long-term injury yet again, losing Coutee will come as a big blow to this already stuttering offense as they face off against their former quarterback Brock Osweiler in a game which could put the Texans two-games above their opponents in the AFC South.
