The Houston Texans were back in primetime for the first time in ages and the welcome party came with a bang.
With the roof open at NRG Stadium for the first time since 2021, fans were greeted by fireworks, a flyover and a game-defining welcome as the Texans take on the Chicago Bears on Sunday Night Football.
Here’s a video of the flyover presented by the Texans’ social media team.
What a night in H-Town 🤘

Country singer Parker McCollum led the team out in their new “H’s Up” tradition. Fellow country singer Clay Walker preformed the national anthem.
The Texans (1-0) will look to start off 2-0 for the first time since 2016. The roof’s opening is a first on Sunday Night Football since Nov. 3, 2013 against the Indianpolis Colts.
Houston will start on offense after Chicago won the toss.
