The Houston Texans must respond following their 21-13 loss to the New York Jets in Week 9.
Things won’t get easier for the AFC South favorites as they welcome in one of the league’s top rosters on primetime off nine days of rest.
Who is next on the schedule to kickstart the month of November? Let’s discuss below.
Who will the Texans play in Week 10 of the NFL schedule?
Houston takes on the Detroit Lions on Halloween at NRG Stadium. This marks the first time the two programs take on each other for the first time in four years.
The Texans (6-3) might be three games above .500, but they’ve struggled to find balance each week. Joe Mixon rushed for over 100 yards for the fifth time this season, while C.J. Stroud threw for less than 200 yards and never found his way into the end zone.
Few teams are as hot as the Lions, who recently acquired defensive end Za’Darius Smith from the Cleveland Browns before Tuesday’s 3 p.m. deadline. Winners of six straight, Detroit is coming off a 10-point victory against the Green Bay Packers, who bested Houston in Week 7.
The Lions will also be gaining back speedy threat Jameson Williams, who was reinstated following his two-game suspension. Houston could be without both defensive end Will Anderson Jr. and receiver Nico Collins.
