The Houston Texans didn’t need points late in the fourth quarter of their win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. However, when Justin Reid sets the offense up with the ball at the three-yard line, they won’t mind stacking up some garbage time points.
Quarterback Deshaun Watson hooked up with wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins for an easy touchdown off of a slant route. Even better: Hopkins did it on his former teammate, cornerback A.J. Bouye.
Hopkins’ touchdown is his first since Week 7 against the Indianapolis Colts. He has four on the season. In addition to the score, Hopkins finished the game with eight receptions for 48 yards.
Before the Texans scored a touchdown off of the turnover, Watson made his best Michael Jordan impression. On a near touchdown run, he made Dabo Swinney and Jon Gruden look smart for comparing him to the GOAT as he cleared a hurdle over a defender.
Watson had another memorable performance on Sunday. He went 22 of 28 for 201 yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing seven times for 37 yards. He is moving onto the bye week with a 6-3 record.
