Miami Dolphins receiver Grant DuBose was seriously injured during the third quarter of Sunday’s game against the Houston Texans.

DuBose was taken to a hospital where he was reported in stable condition with a head injury.

DuBose, who came off the injured reserve list on Saturday and activated for Sunday’s game, was hit hard by Texans safety Calen Bullock at the 9:34 mark of the quarter when he went after a slant pass from Tua Tagovailoa. Bullock was flagged for hitting a defenseless player.

DuBose was motionless on the field for several minutes, surrounded by medical personnel, coach Mike McDaniel and teammates. His shirt was cut off and they took off his shoulder pads. His neck was placed in a brace and he was placed on a back board and taken off the track on a cart.

He is a first-year veteran from North Carolina-Charlotte.

The Dolphins were already thin at receiver Sunday after cutting Odell Beckham Jr. last week. Also, receiver Jaylen Waddle suffered a knee injury during the second quarter and was still out for the second half.
