Houston Texans linebacker Jadeveon Clowney appears to be dealing with an injury after Thursday's loss to the Indianapolis Colts, as he was spotted at the team facility Friday wearing a walking boot on his right foot.

Clowney wasn't forced from the game despite playing with a visible limp, so his protective wear may be little more than a precautionary measure.

Either way, the status of the 2014 No. 1 overall pick will be worth monitoring heading into the Texans' next week of game preparation.

Rebounding from a rookie season almost entirely lost to injury, Clowney has started in four of five games so far in 2015.
