Texans rule out Montgomery and Pitre for Jaguars game in London

Texans rule out Montgomery and Pitre for Jaguars game in London

The Houston Texans will face the Jacksonville Jaguars without two starters in Sunday's game at Wembley Stadium in London.

Running back David Montgomery is out with a groin injury, and safety Jalen Pitre is out with a shoulder injury.

Both were hurt in Houston's 26-3 win over the Tennessee Titans last week, after starting every game this season.

Woody Marks is expected to take over at running back, while rookie Kamari Ramsey is likely to replace Pitre.

Montgomery has 138 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns this season, while Marks has 149 yards and two touchdowns.

The Texans also will travel without wide receiver Tank Dell, who is working back from a serious knee injury and has been practicing without setbacks.

Houston must adjust its lineup against a 4-1 Jaguars team; the Texans enter the matchup with a 1-4 record.
