Texans place guard Pitts on injured reserve after surgery

Left guard Chester Pitts has been placed on injured reserve after undergoing surgery on his right knee today.

Pitts, who started the first 114 games in team history, was injured in Sunday's 34-31 victory at Tennessee.

Pitts, who'll be replaced by Kasey Studdard, underwent microfracture surgery and also had damage to his medial collateral ligament repaired.

Microfracture surgery is done to repair cartilage damage. It's a technique that repairs tiny fractures in the bone and allows new cartilage to grow.

Tracy McGrady of the Rockets is another pro athlete from Houston to undergo the same surgery.
