Andrew Beck likely did not think he would score a touchdown entering the Texans’ game on Sunday against the Jaguars.
However, that’s exactly what the Houston fullback did in the Texans special teams unit. Jacksonville’s Brandon McManus booted a 55-yard kick to the Texans’ 10. After Beck initially muffed the catch, he obtained possession of the ball from Houston’s 15-yard line and dashed toward the right sideline before outrunning multiple Jacksonville defenders for an 85-yard touchdown return.
Beck’s score gave the Texans a 24-10 advantage with 3:19 to play in the third quarter. Prior to his score in Sunday’s game, the former Texas product had only recorded one touchdown in his five-year NFL career, dating back to his days in a Broncos’ uniform in 2019.
