Texans RB Joe Mixon scores opening touchdown vs. Lions
Written by I Dig Sports
HOUSTON -- The Houston Texans couldn't script a better start to their "Sunday Night Football" matchup vs. the Detroit Lions.
On the sixth play of the Lions' opening drive, Texans safety Jalen Pitre deflected a pass from Lions quarterback Jared Goff, and safety Jimmie Ward intercepted it.
The Texans wasted little time and marched into the end zone on an eight-play, 33-yard drive capped by an 8-yard Joe Mixon rushing touchdown. The score put them up 7-0 in the first quarter.
