HOUSTON — Texans receiver Stefon Diggs is out for the season and before Houston’s game against Detroit, players could be seen showing their support for him. 

Quarterback CJ Stroud and receiver Tank Dell could all be seen in pregame warmups wearing Stefon Diggs shirts.  Diggs posted a video of them on his Instagram story walking onto the field.

Diggs has been out since suffering a torn ACL in a game against Indianapolis two weeks ago.

In his first year since coming to Houston in a blockbuster trade with Buffalo, Diggs has 47 catches for 496 yards and three touchdowns in eight games.
