Houston Texans running back Mark Ingram proved he still has some deception left in his moves.
The 31-year-old Pro Bowl running back took part in a drill Saturday at the fourth day of training camp wherein he was being pursued by safety Jonathan Owens and linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill. Ingram faked going inside before kicking it outside and going around the tandem on the right side.
In the process, Owens lost some of his footing, but still was able to recover and continue pursuit of Ingram. In live action, there is no doubt Owens would have recovered enough to make the tackle.

“Mark Ingram’s a bad dude,” running back Phillip Lindsay told reporters on July 29. “His resume speaks.”
Ingram’s last Pro Bowl appearance came in 2019 when he rushed 202 times for 1,018 yards and 10 touchdowns through 15 games, all of which he started. Ingram had a down year in 2020 with 72 carries for 299 yards and two touchdowns in 11 games, nine of which he started.
