Breakfast: Texans CB duo tops NFL in key stat

The hard-working media relations staff of the Houston Texans cranks out several nuggets on a weekly basis. One that may have flown under some radars has to do with the cornerback tandem of Johnathan Joseph and Kareem Jackson.

The latter was drafted in the first round by the Texans in 2010, while the former joined Houston via free agency a year later.

Since then, they've been excellent.

Here's the breakdown of what they've done since the start of the 2011 season, courtesy of the media relations squad:

In that time, the duo has combined for 121 passes defensed and 22 interceptions, four of which have been returned for touchdowns.
