Tight end Brevin Jordan had a standout performance Saturday night as the Houston Texans and Cleveland Browns traded blows in the first half of their wild-card playoff game.
After the Browns took a 14-10 lead on an 11-yard touchdown pass from Joe Flacco to Kareem Hunt at the start of the second quarter, the Texans wanted to fight back.
On the next play from scrimmage, CJ Stroud threw a short pass to the right to Jordan. The tight end made a move, turned on the Jets, and sprinted for a 76-yard touchdown to put Houston back on top with 12 minutes left in the second half.
