Kaimi Fairbairn has quietly become one of the Houston Texans’ most reliable and consistent players this season. The Texans may have finally found a permanent solution to their kicking position. Under the Bill O’Brien era as the head coach, the Texans have gone from Randy Bullock to Nick Novak until they signed Fairbairn after he went undrafted in the 2016 NFL Draft. Fairbairn has proved his worth throughout this season and yet again this week after going 5-for-5 in his field goal attempts against the New York Jets.
The Texans are currently leading the league with 39 field goals attempted and Fairbairn leads all kickers with field goals made with 34.
