WATCH: Texans FB Andrew Beck scores 85-yard kickoff return TD against the Jaguars

The Houston Texans just needed to score.

The Jacksonville Jaguars had scored 10 unanswered points to start the second half. The Texans led 17-0 at the break, but the defending AFC South champions were roaring back and cut Houston’s lead to 17-10 with 4:35 to go in the third quarter.

Houston found an unlikely hero.

While it appeared fullback Andrew Beck was going to signal a fair catch on the ensuing Brandon McManus kickoff, he muffed it. Instead of disaster taking place at the Texans’ 15-yard line, Beck scooped up the loose ball, found a lane, and returned the improbable kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown to give the Texans a 24-10 lead.
