Schaub injured his foot in the 37-9 blowout victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he threw for 242 yards and two touchdowns. But Schaub's season will now be cut short after this big injury.
To replace Schaub, the Texans signed Kellen Clemens, a free-agent quarterback who used to play for the New York Jets. Clemens was drafted in the second-round by New York in the 2006 draft. He got his chance to play after Chad Pennington went down in 2007, but he struggled, which led to the Mark Sanchez era.
Since then, Clemens hasn't found much success. He was in training camp with the Washington Redskins this past off-season, but was cut like he did with New York. He will have his chance to prove himself for the remaining six games of the schedule.
However, don't rule out the possibility of Matt Leinart either, who was going to be starter before Clemens was signed. It will be interesting.
Houston is sitting pretty good in the AFC South, leading with a 7-3 record. They face Jacksonville next. If they can pull out a few more wins, it'll be just enough to get past the Tennessee Titans for an easy division title in the South.
Schaub finishes this year with 2,479 yards along with 15 touchdowns and six interceptions.
