Silver lining from 49ers-Texans: The streak of games without an interception has been snapped
And with that, Deommodore Lenoir is the hero snapping that streak. It took the 49ers until Week 8 to finally notch their first interception of the season. Between that and their celebration of Nati onal Tight End Day, you have all the necessary highlights of the Texans’ loss.
The San Francisco 49ers visit the Houston Texans in Week 8 of the NFL regular season. Here's the start time and where to watch.
Houston coach DeMeco Ryans had high praise for C.J. Stroud after his performance in Sunday's win over San Francisco. Stroud threw for a season-high 318 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Texans to the 26-15 victory.
Hunter had a statement day for himself in the process of the Texans' Week 8 victory. The veteran edge rusher logged his fourth sack of the year in the fourth quarter of the game on Jones to secure Houston's third win of the season, and effectively keep them just one game under .500 entering the halfway point of the new year.
Flash forward six days later, back at home at NRG Stadium, back to knocking people down and creating enough time for quarterback C.J. Stroud and open holes for the running game, it was an entirely different mood altogether for the Texans’ offensive line.
