Brandon McManus kicks Packers past Texans

Brandon McManus proved to be a prudent Packers pickup this week

The Green Bay Packers changed kickers this week and were rewarded for signing Brandon McManus.

The veteran kicked a 45-yard field goal as time expired on Sunday at Lambeau to give the Packers a 24-22 victory over the Houston Texans.

McManus made his first field-goal attempt as a Packer after connecting on three PATs.

He signed with Green Bay on Wednesday.

The Packers and Texans exit Week Seven with 5-2 records, respectively.
