With college football heading to its bowl season, leaving a hole in those rapacious and rambunctious hearts, the NFL steps in to fill the Saturday vacuum of space and of time. The Texans will tip off tomorrow’s triple-triple-triple header against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at 12 p.m.
Usually we don’t know who will and won’t be playing until the Inactives are released before the game. This isn’t one of those times. The Texans will be without Benardrick McKinney, which doesn’t matter all that much because Tampa rarely runs the ball, and each time they do is an affront to the Great Pineapple Man in the sky.
