Houston Texans Sign Recently Cut Safety Adrian Amos Ahead of Week 14 vs. New York Jets – Tracker
DEC 5 TEXANS SIGN EX-JET ADRIAN AMOS The Houston Texans will face the New York Jets in MetLife Stadium on Sunday. They’ll get a leg up with Tuesday’s signing of safety Adrian Amos.
According to Jordan Schultz, Houston signed Amos ahead of their Week 14 game against the struggling Jets. Amos was recently cut by New York and thus did not appear in Week 13’s 13-8 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.
Amos had performed well, making his release a surprising one. He has 19 solo tackles on the year and an admirable 72.7 defense grade from Pro Football Focus.
Expect Amos to provide the Texans with depth and safety and help them prepare for the Jets’ strong defense that ranks third in passing yards allowed per game (176.6).
DEC 3 NICO IN THE END ZONE Nico Collins has had a monster game on Sunday, and he has now found the end zone for the first time on a pass from C.J. Stroud.
Collins broke the century mark in receiving before halftime, but he adjusted his route on this play and got open for a scrambling C.J. Stroud in the end zone. This score put Houston up 22-10 after a failed two-point conversion, and you can view the play below.
NOV 26 GOAL LINE STOP The Houston Texans looked to be in serious trouble in the first half vs. the Jacksonville Jaguars, with the Jags threatening to go up by two scores after a huge completion to Christan Kirk from QB Trevor Lawrence.
And with one second remaining on the clock in the first half, Jaguars coach Doug Peterson elected to go for a touchdown over a field goal from the one-yard line
That decision would ultimately go in the Texans’ favor, however, with the Houston defense standing tall for an impressive goal-line stand as time expired.
It was a risky move from Peterson, not only risking a two-score lead but giving the Texans some serious momentum heading into the locker room at halftime.
