The one consistent thing your Houston Texans have had on offense throughout the season has been DeAndre Hopkins. No matter who was playing quarterback, or how horrible the offensive line was, or how inefficient the running attack was, the Texans had Nuk, and Nuk produced.

Yet another blow to Texans. DeAndre Hopkins (calf) to miss the first game of his five year career. Playing with three QBs had 96 catches for 1,378 yards and 13 TDs. No. 2 receiver? RB Lamar Miller with 36 catches.
