The Texans dropped to 2-5 on Battle Red Day after losing to the New York Giants in overtime by a score of 27-21. The offense often stalled as the home team also racked up 10 penalties. The defense had a few flashes of brilliance including three sacks. The game also included the return of Tank Dell as he returned from a devastating leg injury in December 2024.
