Houston Texans wide receiver Braxton Miller sustained an injured shoulder during the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers and will miss the rest of the contest.

Quarterback Brock Osweiler threw to Miller on a third-and-10 with about four minutes to go in the first half and was hit by safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, who forced an incompletion. Miller spent several minutes on the snow-covered ground before walking directly to the locker room with four trainers. Packers receiver Randall Cobb, who was back to field the punt, talked to Miller as he walked toward the locker room.

Miller was ruled questionable to return.

For Green Bay, outside linebacker Nick Perry sustained a left hand injury in the first quarter and later returned sporting a club cast to protect his injured hand.
