There are few more satisfying things in sports than a big man rumbling for a touchdown, and the Houston Texans experienced that phenomenon in their game against the Tennessee Titans with 10:10 left in the first half. Houston was already up 10-0 with the return from concussion of quarterback C.J. Stroud, and then, veteran edge-rusher Jerry Hughes strip-sacked Titans quarterback Will Levis, and the 6-foot-2, 305-pound Rankins took over from there.

Rankins just qualifies for a #THICCSIX under the official rules, which we hold here at Touchdown Wire. No man under three bills can have one, but Rankins now has the first of his eight-year career.
Unfortunately, Levis was injured on the play.
