The injuries are piling up in the AFC South. Colts QB Andrew Luck opened camp on PUP and there are some rumblings that he could open the season on the PUP list (that report was speculation from LaCanfora so take it with a grain of salt). Now Adam Schefter has this today:
Texans' WR Will Fuller broke his collarbone today during practice, sources tell @sarahbarshop and me. Out indefinitely.

Fuller was the Texans first round pick in 2016. He is a guy that has elite speed and can take the top off of the defense. His presence on the field makes defensive coordinators take notice and opens things up for their running game.
The Texans, despite early positive reviews on Deshaun Watson, are going to win games by running the ball and playing good defense. This injury doesn’t necessarily kill them, but it is always good to have multiple weapons out there for a rookie QB.
Fuller had a nice rookie year with 47 catches for 635 yards and 2 touchdowns.
