    I think his ACL is torn again. It is his same knee as last year. It's really sad. I think this team is cursed but we got to stay strong.

    Cushing asked if he could wait to talk to us after he gets his MRI tomorrow. Gotta feel for the guy. #Texans

    Back to back acl injuries on the same knee. Hard seeing come back as the same player we once was. Shame

    I'm thinking that was an MCL/PCL injury, as his knee hyperextended. It wasn't as much of a lateral hit. Either way, I can only imagine how pissed and disappointed Cushing is.

    If it's the same injury on the same knee, it's hard to imagine him coming back from that.

    And it's going to be another huge contract that needs to be "worked around".

    This team needs a Morey type GM, badly.

    An amazing player but way too injury prone. I feel bad for him but we never should have gave him that big contract :(

    Anybody would go down with an ******* like Jamaal Charles' helmet in the middle of your knee. And when JJ was stood up, he went for his ribs.
    Guy's a POS.
