Facing injury absence
Werner (lower body) won't be an option for Saturday's match against Houston Dynamo, with his lower body issue confirmed by the MLS on Friday.
Analysis: Werner had scored two goals and one assist across five MLS appearances (four starts) since recovering from an earlier injury. However, he's now heading back to the sidelines, and there's uncertainty about when he'll return to action. This is a discouraging development for a club that was counting on him to drive the attack down the stretch of the regular season. San Jose's ability to threaten in behind and generate through a high press is significantly diminished without their most dynamic forward. Darius Johnson, who replaced Werner in the last match, is also dealing with a lower body injury, so Jack Skahan might provide cover in the short term, unless new signing Eduard Lowen is immediately deployed in an advanced role.
Scores, comes off injured
Werner scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 5-1 defeat against Minnesota United. He was subbed off due to injury in the 57th minute, confirmed Daniel Poulter of Poulters Talk Sports.
Analysis: Werner scored the lone goal for San Jose in the 5-1 loss to Minnesota, giving him two goals in his last four matches along with one assist in three starts. However, he was forced off in the 57th minute due to injury, leaving him questionable for Saturday's trip to Houston.
