Houston Texans running back David Montgomery is expected to miss the Week 7 game against the New York Giants due to a groin injury. Montgomery has not played since the Week 5 win over the Tennessee Titans, when he was injured in the first quarter. Woody Marks, last year's leading rusher for the Texans, has stepped up in his absence, totaling 205 yards and two touchdowns this season. Montgomery's condition follows the placement of Jawhar Jordan on injured reserve. The Texans may call up Deuce Vaughn to support the running game alongside Dare Ogunbowale.
