Houston Texans Release First Injury Report vs. Detroit Lions

The Houston Texans are fresh off a tough loss against the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football. Leading up to the contest, New York was quite an abysmal football team, so the loss to drop the Texans’ record to 6-3 hurt that much more.

The Texans are without wide receivers Nico Collins and Stefon Diggs — who suffered a season-ending knee injury — so the result wasn’t exactly shocking. However, Collins is eligible to return from Injured Reserve, which would make a huge difference for Houston.

Collins wasn’t listed on the Texans’ first injury report before their coming contest against the Detroit Lions, though that’s because he hasn’t been taken off of Injured Reserve quite yet. Here’s how the injury report played out for Houston on Wednesday:

Did not participate:

DE Will Anderson Jr., ankle
DE Derek Barnett, calf/shoulder
DT Foley Fatusaki, groin/shoulder
OG Kenyon Green, shoulder
DE Dylan Horton, illness
RB Dameon Pierce, groin

Limited particpant:

LB Azees Al-Shaair, knee
LB Jake Hanses, ankle
DE Jerry Hughes, hip
OG Shaq Mason, hip
CB Jeff Okudah, ankle
OT Laremy Tunsil, rest
S Jimmy Ward, groin

The Texans’ injury report was quite hefty, and the defense could be quite banged up as they take on the Lions — who are a very rounded, solid squad with an electric offense.

Despite the game being at NRG Stadium in Houston, Detroit enters the matchup as a 3.5-point favorite. The Lions are 7-1 on the season and are regarded as one of the best teams in the league.

Houston needs both Collins to return and the rest of the injury report to be cleaned up if they want to take down such a strong NFC opponent.

Closed Detroit behavioral facility faces lawsuit over alleged sex abuse of teen

Closed Detroit behavioral facility faces lawsuit over alleged sex abuse of teen

A former treatment facility in Detroit is the subject of a newly filed lawsuit, alleging that a teen was sexually abused while there.

The Detroit Behavioral Institute and Acadia Healthcare are listed in a new lawsuit filed in the Wayne County Circuit Court. According to the lawsuit, a 17-year-old was sent to the facility in 2015 and was allegedly sexually abused and groomed by a staff member over the next year.

“When he was restraining her, he’d fondle her and grope her. And it was under this sort of idea that he was calming her down,” said attorney Nicholas Wainwright with Gould, Grieco, and Hensley.

According to the lawsuit, the institute had two locations in Detroit, but the state suspended its license in 2022 after continuous abuse allegations.

Acadia Healthcare currently operates several treatment facilities in Michigan and across the country. CBS News Detroit reached out to the company on Wednesday and is awaiting a response.

“This is a company with a litany of problems at the state and federal level,” Wainwright told CBS News Detroit.

The lawsuit alleges that a staff member went as far as purchasing underwear for the victim.

“He would buy her lacy underwear, have inappropriate conversations about having affairs and cheating on his wife,” Wainwright said.

Last year, several victims filed lawsuits against Detroit Behavioral Institute and Acadia Healthcare, alleging similar accusations. The litigation for that case is still ongoing.

“How are they making sure, when two people restrain a kid, we’re checking to make sure the way they said it went down is the way it went down,” Wainwright said.

Wainwright alleges that the company started putting profits over people, which is when problems began to escalate.

“Then they stop focusing on things like hiring the top tier indivudals to be there, because they cost more money. They start focusing on how we can do this – cheaper and cheaper and cheaper,” Wainwright said.

According to the lawsuit, the victim suffered extreme emotional damage from her time at the facility.

K-9 sniffs out undeclared fruit trees in arriving luggage at Detroit Metro Airport

A K-9 assigned to work at Detroit Metro Airport with U.S. Customs and Border Protection agriculture specialists was credited with two recent instances of detecting undeclared trees among incoming luggage.

One of those circumstances involved an undeclared, suspected fruit tree from Moldova.

The CBP Director of Field Operations Marty C. Raybon shared a video of K-9 Baylee, wearing a CBP identification vest, sniffing out the small, undeclared tree on March 3 while checking arriving luggage at the airport.

“Trees like this can carry exotic plant pests and plant pathogens. Please leave the trees behind and don’t pack a pest!” the agency said in a social media video shared Monday on Instagram.

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Detroit Field Office K-9 Baylee has been finding undeclared small trees amid arriving luggage at Detroit Metro Airport.

The same K-9 also found small, undeclared plum trees inside luggage that had arrived with a passenger from Albania on Feb. 20.

“These trees could have carried plum pox virus, a serious disease that harms stone fruit,” Raybon said in that social media post shared Sunday on Instagram. “The U.S. recently got rid of this virus, so it’s important to keep it out.”

A list of prohibited and restricted items for airline travel into the U.S. can be found on the CBP website.

Previous reports of unwelcome agricultural pests intercepted at Detroit Metro have included a medfly amid damaged fruit with a passenger from Albania, caper fruit fly larvae amid fresh flowers from Italy, and remains of an invasive khapra beetle found amid luggage arriving from Lebanon.
