Lands on IR
Pierre-Louis (groin) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Pierre-Louis suffered the injury in the Texans' 16-9 loss to the Broncos on Sunday. Although he was able to limp off of the field, he ultimately was carted to the locker room from the sideline. With the move to IR, Pierre-Louis is guaranteed to miss at least the next four games, with a return Week 8 against the Titans being the first game he'll be eligible to play. In Pierre-Louis' absence, Blake Cashman may take over the former's minimal role.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2015
2014
Pierre-Louis only played seven games last year because of injuries, but it was a promising rookie campaign nonetheless, and much is expected from the backup OLB this season. If KPL develops as hoped, he'll step into the starting spot next year in place of Bruce Irvine, who likely won't return. Pierre-Louis was the the fastest linebacker in last year's draft class with a 4.51 40, and he posted a 39-inch vertical. Keep an eye on his development.
