2017 Sunday Night Football Live: Texans vs. Chiefs (First Quarter)

In an AFC face-off that could well become a playoff preview, the Houston Texans host the Kansas City Chiefs at NRG Stadium on primetime television.

Deshaun Watson and the Texans’ offense will see a true test in the tough Chiefs defensive front, while J.J. Watt and the Houston defense will look to contain the explosive weapons of Tyreek Hill, Kareem Hunt and Travis Kelce.
