Houston Texans LB Brian Cushing (knee) said he expects to receive medical clearance from Dr. James Andrews by July 17.

Huddle Up: Having a healthy Cushing could make a big difference for the Texans' D, in terms of play-making and leadership. The LB had 29 total tackles, an interception and two passes defensed in 5 games last season before his injury.

Houston Texans LB Brian Cushing (knee) expects to be back for Week 1 of the 2013 NFL season, and possibly for the first day of training camp.

Huddle Up: Cushing, the 2009 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, played only five games in 2012, and the Texans' D definitely appeared to lose some bite after he was shelved for the season. The sooner he's healthier, the better for Houston.

Houston Texans LB Brian Cushing (knee) could start training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list because he is returning from a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Cushing, though, reportedly is ahead of schedule in his recovery.

Huddle Up: Getting a healhy Cushing back is vital for the Texans, who were 5-0 in games started by the LB and 8-5 (including the postseason) without him.

Houston Texans LB Brian Cushing (knee) was officially diagnosed Tuesday with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee and will be lost for the season. Cushing sufferd the injury in the team's Week 5 game Monday night against the New York Jets.

Huddle Up: A tough blow for the Texans and their dominating defense as they lose their top tackler and one of their emotional leaders. Cushing is expected to be replaced in the starting lineup by Tim Dobbins.

Updating a previous report, the Houston Texans fear LB Brian Cushing tore his anterior cruciate ligament. He will have an MRI Tuesday, Oct. 9.

Huddle Up: It didn't look good last night for Cushing, but there's no official word on the injury yet. While losing Cushing wouldn't torpedo the Texans' season it would definitely leave a hole in their defense.

Updating a previous report, Houston Texans LB Brian Cushing (knee) was taken to the locker room in the second quarter of the Week 5 game Monday, Oct. 8, against the New York Jets. Cushing walked off under his own power with a trainer, but he was wincing and shaking his head. The medical staff was looking at his left knee area on the trainer's table on the sidelines. At halftime, the team announced he would not return.

Huddle Up: This is a big blow to the Texans' defense as Cushing came into the game leading the squad with 24 tackles. He had five tackles before leaving with the injury.

Houston Texans LB Brian Cushing (ribs) did not make the trip to New Orleans and will not play Saturday, Aug. 25.
