Texans’ T.J. Yates hits DeAndre Hopkins for the 20-yard touchdown pass.
The Houston Texans are trying to compete for the AFC South title, and they’re playing their butts off in Week 11. One of the stars of the game has been DeAndre Hopkins, who has been making vaunted cornerback Darrelle Revis look average.
In the second half, Hopkins caught his second touchdown pass of the game, giving him five receptions for 118 yards.
