Texans’ Laremy Tunsil Hurt on Extra Point

C.J. Stroud looks like he’s more than capable of rising to the moment as the Houston Texans have built an early 10-7 lead over the Cleveland Browns in their Wild Card playoff game. He connected with Nico Collins for a 15-yard score shortly before the end of the first quarter to delight the hometown crowd. Joe Flacco looks good on the other side and we could have a classic shootout on our hands in a time slot usually reserved for borderline unwatchable elimination game.

The good Texans vibes were derailed on the subsequent PAT when four-time Pro Bowl tackle Laremy Tunsil suffered what looked to be a significant injury. It’ll be a big deal if he’s unable to get back in the game and protect Stroud.

Losing a key player on a special teams play like this would be a huge bummer. Seems like someone could be out there blocking for years and years without getting caught up in a situation like this.
