Ryans mentioned particularly how the Texans will adjust without standout safety Jalen Pitre. Despite Pitre’s absence, Ryans expressed confidence in the ability of Houston to adapt and change their plan this week to maximize talent on the field.

The hits keep coming for the Houston Texans as Jalen Pitre is expected to be out “for a while” after leaving Sunday’s game.

Safety Jalen Pitre suffered a partially torn pectoral during the team's Week 12 loss to the division rival Tennessee Titans, via NFL Media. Pitre will be out for multiple weeks, though the exact timetable for his return is not yet known.
