The rivalry between the Texans and Titans heightened a bit on Sunday after Tennessee wore the franchise’s Oilers throwback uniforms against Houston during their clash in Week 15.
The Oilers, who previously played in Houston, relocated to Tennessee in 1997, before rebranding as the Titans in 1999. Houston was without an NFL team until the Texans were founded in 2002.
The decision to wear the throwback uniforms was a contentious one, but it ultimately backfired on the Titans after they suffered a 19–16 overtime loss despite having a 13–0 lead in the first half.
