EAST RUTHERFORD, NEW JERSEY—Despite two touchdowns from Sam Darnold, two other scores from DeAndre Hopkins spelled doom for the New York Jets, who fell 29-22 to the Houston Texans on Saturday late afternoon.
The game got off to a defensive-minded start, with each defense earning a showstopping sack on their respective first drives. JJ Watt ended the first drive for the Texans, shortly before his
offense broke into Jets territory. But thanks to Henry Anderson, and with a little help from officials, the Texans only managed a Ka’imi Fairbairn field goal to make 3-0.
