The Texans struggle defensively again in 27-21 overtime loss to Giants
In a dramatic overtime finish, Devin Singletary's 30-yard touchdown run propelled the New York Giants to a 27-21 victory over the Houston Texans on Sunday. Cam Skattebo's 16-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter set the stage for Singletary's game-winning run. Quarterback J.J. McCarthy had a solid performance, completing 20 of 28 passes for 252 yards in his first start of the season.
Despite C.J. Stroud's two touchdown passes, the Texans failed to sustain their offense in the second half, finishing with just 153 passing yards. The Texans had trouble moving the ball after halftime, resulting in a turnover on downs and ultimately a loss. Marvin Harrison Jr. scored a touchdown for the Texans, while John Harbaugh made the bold move to bench Jameis Winston in favor of McCarthy. Both teams return next week for their respective home games against the Eagles and Chargers.
