Houston Texans free safety Ed Reed underwent arthroscopic surgery to repair a small labral tear in his hip last week, reports John McClain of the Houston Chronicle.
Reed will miss organized team activities but is expected to be healthy enough to participate in training camp. He missed the first seven weeks of the 2010 season while he recovered from reconstructive hip surgery to replace a torn labrum.
The nine-time Pro Bowler has only missed 16 games in his 11-year NFL career. Second-round draft pick D.J. Swearinger is expected to get some reps while Reed recovers.
