Houston Texans receiver and Roman Catholic graduate Will Fuller broke his collarbone in training camp Wednesday and is out for 2-3 months, according to an ESPN report.

Fuller, who graduated from Roman in 2013 and played for Notre Dame, was drafted by the Texans with the 21st pick in the 2016 NFL draft. In his rookie season, he had 47 catches for 635 yards and two touchdowns.

According to the report, Fuller fell on his shoulder after jumping for a pass during team drills. He left the field after the fall.

Fuller was a first-team receiver on the Inquirer's all-Southeastern Pennsylvania team and was the Catholic League Class 4A MVP in his senior season. He is also the co-holder of the Notre Dame record for touchdown receptions in a season with 15.
