Stefon Diggs could miss his first game of the season after suffering a non-contact knee injury against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Monday that "it's pretty safe to say" the Houston Texans wide receiver is not expected to play against the New York Jets on Thursday.
Rapoport also reported that Diggs was listed as DNP for Monday's estimated practice report and that head coach DeMeco Ryans said the Texans "need to get more tests and continue evaluating his knee."

Diggs tweaked his knee while running a route in Sunday's win over Houston and exited the game after recording five receptions for 81 yards.
"Unfortunate to see Stef go down there. He's being evaluated for a knee," head coach Ryans said after the game, per ESPN's DJ Bien-Aime. "We'll find out further information as the week goes on."
In his debut season with the Texans, Diggs has 496 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 47 receptions.
Should Houston be without the star for an extended period, it would only add to the Texans' injury woes. Houston placed star receiver Nico Collins on the injured reserve earlier in October due to a hamstring injury and he's intelligible to return until Week 10.
