The Houston Texans have a knack for making history during the early rounds of the playoffs. Saturday at NRG Stadium was no different against Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers.

But C.J. Stroud saved the team from further calamity after a fumbled shotgun snap, as the second-year quarterback recovered the ball and found wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson on the move for a 34-yard gain.

The Houston Texans were trailing 6-0 and facing third-and-16 from their 17 late in the first half of their wild-card playoff game against the Los Angeles Chargers when quarterback C.J.

The Houston Texans waived Diontae Johnson Tuesday after the beleaguered receiver — who was released by the Ravens earlier this season after refusing to enter a game — played just two games for them. Johnson had one reception for 12 yards in Houston's wild-card playoff win over the Chargers on Saturday.

Diontae Johnson wanted to help the Houston Texans win a Super Bowl. Instead, he’ll be looking for fifth fifth team within 13 months. In a surprise move, the Texans waived the veteran wide receiver just three weeks after claiming him off waivers from the Baltimore Ravens.
