Texans linebacker returns from concussion, cleared
Texans linebacker Henry To’oTo’o cleared from concussion, back for Jets game: ‘Excited, juiced up and ready to go’Known for his cerebral nature, instincts and aggressiveness, Texans rookie linebacker Henry To’oTo’o is proving to be a quick study on the practice field.has been cleared under the mandatory NFL concussion protocol and said he expects to make his return to play Thursday night for a road football game against the New York Jets.
“I’m excited,” To’oTo’o said. That’s my biggest thing. I’m just so excited to be able to play the game. I love it and also to be out with the guys that you work so hard with every single day. I’m excited. I’m juiced up and ready to go.”To’o’To’o made a loud impact early this season when he crashed through Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid, sending the 6-foot-4, 240-pound former first-round draft pick flailing to the ground on his back.
To’oTo’o, working in tandem with veteran middle linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair had six tackles against the Bills.Throughout the game, To’oTo’o kept saying to teammates: ‘Whatever you need, all day, I got your back.” This past game, like every game, wasn’t perfect, but it was another encouraging outing for To’oTo’o, who’s playing a faster, more physical brand of football than his rookie year when he sometimes appeared to be indecisive and thinking too much.
