Newton was attempting to block for quarterback Brock Osweiler on a passing play when both of his legs buckled.
Newton left the game with both legs in air casts.
As you might expect from such a terrible injury, the recovery looks like it will be slow and lengthy.
Newton is in his sixth season with the Texans. He signed a five-year, $26.5 million contract with the team prior to the 2015 season.
