HOUSTON — One play Houston Texans safety Jalen Pitre would love to have back from last week’s tilt with the New England Patriots occurred in the first quarter of the 20-9 preseason win.
On third-and-8 from the New England 14-yard-line, Patriots quarterback Bailey Zappe threw a pass over the head of Texans cornerback Steven Nelson to Tyquan Thortnon that was very risky with Pitre lurking over the top. Thornton made the catch in front of Pitre, who was awaiting an overthrow by Zappe.
