NFL: Texans LB Cushing out for season

[CycloneRulzzz]

Heard he is out for the year with torn ACL.

Hate to see a great player go down like this. However it's an opportunity for former ISU LB Tim Dobbins. I wasn't sure if Dobby was still in the league, but dude can hit with the best of them just ask Drew Tate.:smile:

Not only is he still in the league, he's a Texans team captain (that one surprised me).

Even more reason to cheer for the Texans!

The Dobbins part, not the injury part.

Cushing is a psycho.

What did you all think of the hit that caused Cushing injury? Dirty or no?

Hit by Matt Slauson, formerly of the B12 Nebby team.

Extremely dirty. After getting beat, it was 8 yards from the play, from behind, straight at his knee. He's lucky he doesn't play the Texans again, cuz there would be some retaliation.

Special teams juggernaut for us the last couple seasons.

Thought it was kind of cool seeing him stand up Shon Green at the line of scrimmage last night. Must have been a little nostalgic for him..... crushing Iowa RBs.

Wow, really dirty.

Wow, really dirty.

My thought as well, although I'm biased since I've been getting the Texans perspective of it.

Dobby hit at :30 second mark.:smile:
