Michael Jordan injury: Patriots starting left guard leaves vs. Texans image

The New England Patriots have been going through a lot of issues on their offensive line through the first five games into the season, and in the fourth quarter of their sixth game, things got worse.

On a first-and-10 run, left guard Michael Jordan suffered an injury that forced him to leave the game. This injury came at an inopportune time, as the Patriots started Ben Brown at center, just days after he joined the team, and left tackle Vederian Lowe left with an injury earlier in the game.

Jordan was replaced by Sidy Sow, who was expected to be the team's starting left guard at the beginning of the year before he was injured in the preseason.

Sow was called for a false start on what would have been his third snap.
