  "account": "Houston Texans running back David Montgomery is currently battling a serious groin injury that has sidelined him following their recent win against the Tennessee Titans. Head coach DeMeco Ryans confirmed Monday that Montgomery's status is uncertain week-to-week. Acquired from the Detroit Lions this offseason, Montgomery was anticipated to provide a boost to the struggling offense that failed to make a significant impact in rushing during last season's 12-win campaign. Since his three-touchdown game in the opening match against the Buffalo Bills, Montgomery has only managed to accumulate 78 yards on 32 carries and has not scored since Week 1. Woody Marks, the team's primary running back last season, has been more consistent, tallying two touchdowns on 15 carries and adding 22 receiving yards on four catches. However, one of Marks' touchdown runs was subsequently nullified due to a Brevin Jordan holding penalty. Despite the run game's lackluster performance, losing Montgomery for any duration is highly undesirable. The Texans have increasingly relied on passing plays, ranking 30th in rushing yards and 29th in yards per attempt. They will travel to London to face the Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley Stadium this week, with kickoff set for 8:30 a.m. local time on NFL Network.",
  "summary": "While the Houston Texans won on the road against an AFC South opponent, their run game might have taken a hit before they travel accross the pond.",
