HOUSTON -- Houston linebacker Brian Cushing has a sprained right medial collateral ligament in his right knee and is out indefinitely.Cushing was injured in the first quarter of Houstons 23-14 win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday and did not return. Though Cushing is expected to miss some time, the Texans do expect him back this season.Brian will be back I would say sooner rather than later, coach Bill OBrien said. Hes a guy thats obviously played a long time and knows exactly whats wrong and hell work very hard to get back as quickly as he can.Its the third time Cushing has missed time with a knee injury, although the first two, which were both to his left knee, were much more serious.In Week 7 of the 2013 season, Cushing tore the lateral collateral ligament in his left knee and broke his left fibula on a low hit and missed the rest of the season. He had missed the last 11 games of the 2012 season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in the same knee in Week 5 against the New York Jets.The 29-year old returned for the opener of the 2014 season and started 14 games that year, finishing with 72 tackles. He looked to be back to form last season when he started every game and led the team with 110 tackles. It was his first 100-tackle season since he had 114 in 2011 before the first injury.With Cushing out, the Texans will look to Max Bullough to fill in. The 24-year-old is in his third NFL season and he appeared in 13 games last season after getting into just one game as a rookie in 2014.Benardrick McKinney, a second-year player, could also help pick up the slack during Cushings absence.Those guys are good football players, OBrien said. We feel like weve built depth there ... sometimes injuries happen. Its a tough, tough game and the next guy has to step up.Bullough took over on Sunday after Cushing left the game and finished with five tackles. He was confident about his increased role and credited Cushing.Hes been here for a while and hes helped me a lot, Bullough said. Ive learned a lot from him ... (my) thoughts are with Cush and I know hell be back as soon as he can.The Texans also said starting left tackle Duane Brown wont return this week while continuing his recovery from quadriceps surgery in January. And they are looking for improvement from J.J. Watt after the defensive end wasnt his dominant self in his return Sunday after sitting out the entire preseason following back surgery.OBrien gave last seasons Defensive Player of the Year credit for even being on the field after having surgery to repair a herniated disk in July before critiquing his play.He knows that he needs to go out there and play better, OBrien said. Im sure hell be the first one to tell you that. As the game went on I thought he played better and better. He was getting more used to the speed of the game. He hadnt played in a long time. No training camp. So I think youll see that the more he plays hell be back to what youre looking for.The Texans (1-0) host Kansas City (1-0) on Sunday.--Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Wholesale Air Jordan 1 Free Shipping . - The Oakland Raiders re-signed offensive lineman Khalif Barnes on Friday.

How great will be revealed in the next couple of days at the board of governors meeting in Pebble Beach, Calif.Newcastle boss Rafael Benitez faces a selection headache of the best kind on Sunday, with two in-form strikers vying for a starting berth at Leeds. Newcastle head to Elland Road looking to extend a seven-match winning run in the Sky Bet Championship, but face a Leeds side with their own lofty aspirations, having climbed into the top six before the international break. Leeds vs Newcastle November 20, 2016, 1:00pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass The form of both sides strikers has been key, with Dwight Gayle the divisions top scorer with 11 goals, while Chris Wood has found the net eight times. However, Aleksandar Mitrovic has been making a case to be the Magpies first-choice marksman with seven goals from his last six starts for club and country, including breaking the hearts of Wales fans in earning Serbia a 1-1 draw last Thursday.Benitez will now have to decide whether to go with Mitrovic again, having started the 22-year-old last time out against Cardiff, recall the well-rested Gayle or, for the first time, start with both. Mitrovic scored for Serbia against Wales to take his tally to seven goals in his last six starts Sky Bet put the question to Sky Sports EFL pundits Peter Beagrie and David Prutton in their Facebook Live match preview.dddddddddddd..Beagrie said: Dwight Gayle for me has got to start. Hes going to be fresh, he does everything that you hate as a big centre-half, he makes great runs and theyve got the players around him to pick out those runs.I would also think he could play with a foil and Mitrovic would benefit from not having to run the channels. Mitrovic will also be helpful to come back and help defend set-pieces. Gayle has scored 11 goals so far this season Prutton said: I think the sort of liveliness that Gayle has up against the two big centre-halves, Pontus Jansson and Kyle Bartley, will cause all sorts of problems. Thats unless we get a reducer from one of the central defenders early on!I think Benitez will go with Mohamed Diame and Ayoze Perez around him and then continue to look to use Mitrovic as an impact substitute.What do you think Newcastle should do?
