Overview
- Houston beat the Tennessee Titans 26-3 Sunday, with C.J. Stroud completing 26 of 34 passes for 261 yards and scoring one passing and one rushing touchdown.
- The Texans' defense forced two turnovers, recorded four sacks including three by Will Anderson Jr., and held Tennessee to a season-low 187 total yards.
- Running back David Montgomery left with a groin injury and safety Jalen Pitre exited with a shoulder issue, raising short-term depth concerns for Houston.
- Hours after the win the Texans finalized a trade for Arizona receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., reportedly for a second-round pick, reuniting him with his former Ohio State teammate C.J. Stroud while his immediate impact remains uncertain.
- Houston travels to Wembley Stadium next week to face the Jacksonville Jaguars in a key follow-up game that will test whether the win, the Harrison addition, and Stroud’s 1,402 passing yards with six touchdowns and zero interceptions through five games produce sustained momentum.
