This play knotted the score at 10, and it obviously marked Houston's first touchdown of the game. The Texans have struggled to establish a rhythm offensively, only holding 13 rushing yards in the first half as of this writing.

Sims was brought to the Texans' active roster on Tuesday after being a part of the team's practice squad since Aug. 29. He has previous career stops with the Washington Commanders, Buffalo Bills and Pittsburgh Steelers since joining the league as an undrafted free agent in 2019.
