The Houston Texans and Davis Mills put together a miraculous comeback win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Texans watched an epic walk-off victory out of Sheldon Rankins, scoring on a "thicc-6" touchdown against the Jaguars
Justin James “JJ” Watt is one of the most well-known names in modern NFL history. A three-time AP Defensive Player of the Year and a five-time first-team All-Pro, Watt finished his 12-season career with 114.5 sacks, more than 580 tackles and a long list of honors that also include five Pro Bowl nods.
The Texans managed to win on Sunday thanks to a miraculous fourth-quarter comeback. They will be shorthanded in the secondary for the remainder of the campaign, however.
The Jaguars’ slow collapse on Sunday against the Texans was tough to watch. Jacksonville held a 29–10 heading into the fourth quarter and were facing a Houston side led by backup quarterback Davis Mills. It felt like cruise control could get the Jags to victory from there.

Then the tides turned. Mills threw touchdowns to Jayden Higgins and Dalton Schultz, and the Texans forced three and outs following both drives. Then, down 29-24, Mills produced a 14-yard run to give the hosts an improbable 30-29 lead. It was his first touchdown run since 2022.
