Houston Texans rookie tight end C.J. Fiedorowicz will make his first career start Sunday against the Washington Redskins, as starter Garrett Graham has been declared out for the season opener.
Texans head coach Bill O'Brien told reporters Thursday that Graham has been dealing with a tight back.
"It was something in practice," O'Brien, per CBSSports.com. "It's not a major injury but it's something that may take more than Sunday to heal up."
