Dylan Cole had not scored a touchdown since high school.
On Sunday, the Texans undrafted rookie linebacker was so caught up in the moment, he gave his first NFL touchdown ball to a nine-year-old in the stands.
“I was just looking up at the crowd and it was just like I was trying to enjoy the moment," Cole said Wednesday. "I turned and I looked and she was right there. She was just kind of reaching out so I ran over there and gave it to her."
In the fourth quarter against Tennessee, Cole intercepted Matt Cassel’s pass and returned it 25 yards for a touchdown.
