description

Playmakers ran aplenty for the Houston Texans, as they exchanged blows with the similarly-high-powered Buffalo Bills in Week 5; with the game’s outcome in jeopardy, all trust, though, fell to a player who stands as the organization’s all-time leading scorer. Frequently tested by time and high-pressure situations during Oct. 6, 2024’s 23-20 win, Ka’imi Fairbairn stepped into the afternoon’s most consequential kick yet, successfully draining a curvy 59-yard boot to send NRG Stadium into a celebratory rave. The later-named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week was virtuosic, providing 11 points — three-of-three on field goals, and two-of-two on extra points — elevating him to No. 1 in the Texans’ scoring record books with 773 points.
