The Houston Texans have placed another player on injured reserve.

The Texans announced Tuesday the placement of receiver Jesse Matthews on injured reserve. According to Aaron Wilson from KPRC-TV, Matthews tore his ACL.

The undrafted rookie from San Diego State was part of a group of developmental receivers that included Jared Wayne, Johnny Johnson, Jalen Camp, and Alex Bachman.

The 6-0, 190-pound wideout from San Diego State caught 45 passes for 508 yards and three touchdowns in his 13 games with the Aztecs last season, earning an honorable mention for all-Mountain West.

Matthews is the fifth player to land on the Texans’ injured reserve, including FB Troy Hairston, C Scott Quessenberry, OT D.J. Scaife, and OT Greg Little.
