More from Houston Texans

The Texans got the ball first and began an impressive drive from their own 20.

Once they reached the 47-yard line, Arian Foster broke off a 46-yard run that appeared to be a touchdown but after review, Foster was called down at the one-yard line. On the next play, Ryan Fitzpatrick went back to pass and found a player wide open in the end zone for the touchdown – the player was Texans’ star defensive end J.J. Watt, who entered the game on the goal line.

You can see Watt’s touchdown below.

The Texans pointed out that it was also the first touchdown by a defensive player from scrimmage in franchise history.
