WATCH: Texans get first takeaway of season from Will Anderson Jr
The Houston Texans finally get their first takeaway of the season in Week 3 on a strip sack from All-Pro defensive end Will Anderson Jr.
In Week 3, the Houston Texans secured their first takeaway of the season against the Indianapolis Colts. All-Pro defensive end Will Anderson Jr. executed a strip-sack on Colts quarterback Daniel Jones, resulting in a fumble. However, Anderson Jr. subsequently fumbled while attempting to recover the ball, but Pro Bowl cornerback Kamari Lassiter was able to recover it for the Texans. This moment is highlighted by the Houston Texans' social media, with the caption "Can't stop WAJ‼️".
Despite this positive play, the Texans were unable to capitalize on the drive. On fourth-and-short from Indianapolis' 31-yard line, Houston opted to go for it instead of attempting a 49-yard field goal by Ka'im I Fairbairn. Running back David Montgomery failed to pick up the first down, leading to another turnover on downs for Houston, their second in consecutive weeks. As of now, the game remains scoreless, but the Colts are on the offensive.
