Despite a relatively mild sprained medial collateral ligament in his right knee suffered just a week ago, Texans tight end C.J. Fiedorowicz experienced little discomfort Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings.
Fiedorowicz caught four passes for 61 yards on eight targets during a 31-13 loss at U.S. Bank Stadium while wearing a knee brace.
"My knee feels good," Fiedorowicz said. "It felt better every day last week. I didn't even really think about the knee. The brace deadens the pain. My knee is fine actually. I'm not really very sore. I feel pretty good."
Texans tight end Ryan Griffin suffered a concussion and was down on the field for several minutes against the Vikings.
