- Linebacker ejected after hit leaves QB concussed
- Vikings and Colts seal late victories
Joe Mixon ran for 101 yards and a touchdown, Nico Collins caught eight passes for 119 yards and the Houston Texans beat Jacksonville after Trevor Lawrence was forced out of the game with a concussion after a controversial hit. The AFC South-leading Texans (8-5) won for just the second time in five weeks and staggered into their bye week with a little momentum.
Mixon carried 20 times, none bigger than his eight-yard gain on third-and-five in the waning minutes that moved the chains and sealed the victory. CJ Stroud completed 22 of 34 passes for 242 yards, with a 22-yard TD pass to Dalton Schultz early in the fourth quarter that essentially iced the game. It was Houston’s 12th win in their past 14 meetings with the Jaguars (2-10) and sixth in a row in Jacksonville.
