Bill O'Brien impressed by Jadeveon Clowney's hustle on TD

Jadeveon Clowney was in hot pursuit of Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Brandon LaFell, chasing after him and gaining ground for a few moments after reversing his charge once he was unable to get to quarterback Andy Dalton.

The slant on a pick play went for an 86-yard touchdown during the Texans' 12-10 win as safety Andre Hal and inside linebacker Max Bullough were unable to converge on the Lamar graduate. However, Clowney's effort left an impression on Texans coach Bill O'Brien even though the Pro Bowl defensive end didn't corral LaFell.

"It was a great design by Cincinnati," O'Brien said.
