The Houston Texans are set to face off against the Indianapolis Colts in a critical final game of the regular season. With a recent victory over the Colts, the Texans have secured a playoff spot for the third consecutive year. They currently hold an 11-5 record and still have a shot at clinching the NFC South title. However, winning their game isn’t quite enough; they also need the Jaguars to lose their matchup against the Titans, which kicks off at 1 p.m.
On the other side, the Colts, despite their early season promise, have fallen out of playoffs contention. With rookie Riley Leonard stepping in as the starting quarterback today—following a career-ending injury to Daniel Jones—the team also called upon Philip Rivers, who surprisingly came out of retirement to help out.
