Rex Burkhead Out Again Thursday
2 years agoHouston Texans running back Rex Burkhead (concussion) missed a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday. Burkhead remains in the league's concussion protocol after suffering a head injury in the Week 12 loss to the Miami Dolphins. He'll have one more day to get cleared on Friday, and if he doesn't, Eno Benjamin will likely serve as the primary backup in his team debut to rookie Dameon Pierce in Week 13 against the Cleveland Browns. Burkhead played just 11 offensive snaps last week before getting injured, catching one of his two targets for a five-yard gain. He didn't see a single carry in the contest.
