Texans OL D.J. Scaife carted off field after suffering injury

The Houston Texans suffered a serious injury on Saturday in fall camp. Houston offensive lineman D.J. Scaife was carted off the field and had to get his right leg immobilized, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC2. The franchise just signed him to the roster on August 4th. When he was carted off, the entire defensive and offensive line for the Texans took a knee in a scary moment in practice.

Scaife was originally undrafted this year. He played his college football with the Miami Hurricanes. After the NFL Draft, he was signed with the Miami Dolphins, then he was claimed by the Packers in May. Then on August 4th, he was signed by the Houston Texans. They were his third NFL team in a very short period of time. Scaife started 32 games at right tackle and another 20 at right guard during his time with the Hurricanes.

In the USFL Draft in February, he was selected by the Michigan Panthers with the No. 24 overall pick in the fourth round.

In high school coming out of Miami Southridge, Scaife was one of the highest ranked recruits in the country, earning a spot in the 2018 Under Armour All-American Game. He was also ranked as the No. 133 overall prospect in the country, according to the On3 Industry Rankings.
