#Texans safety Jalen Pitre was taken to a local hospital after suffering a bruised lung when Lamar Jackson’s knee hit his chest during today’s loss to the #Ravens, per sources.
The good news is Pitre should be OK, though he may stay overnight for observation. pic.twitter.com/XG3Vra44pB

Defense wasn’t the same when he went out. They had a shot of him on the sideline coughing up blood after that hit he had on Lamar on 3rd down so I wasn’t surprised to see him ruled out at the start of the second half.
Hopefully that injury isn’t too bad.

Yikes. Surprised he got a pulmonary contusion without broken ribs. Rest up Pitre, you are missed.
Thank god it’s not a torn pec. Hope he’s back soon
Yeesh. That sounds nasty I hope they take good care of him.
I hope it isn’t too serious and we can have him back soon. Defense wasn’t the same without him.
That sounds painful as hell
Thought I saw blood in his mouth after the hit. Hope he’s ok.
