Former South Carolina DE Jadeveon Clowney missed last weekend’s game against the Green Bay Packers with an elbow/wrist injury, according to the Houston Texans.
It was the first game he’d missed all season, but it brought up questions about his durability, as he’s missed significant time in his young NFL career.
However, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft will temporarily silence the doubters on Sunday when the Texans take on the Indianapolis Colts:
O'Brien on Clowney (wrist/elbow): "Oh yeah, he'll play."

The ex-Gamecock has recorded 41 tackles and three sacks so far this season.
The Texans and Colts will square off at 1 p.m. Eastern time on Sunday. The game can be seen on CBS.
