Where had Bradley Roby been the last seven weeks?
The free agent cornerback jumped a route on third-and-4 Sunday night as the Houston Texans battled the New England Patriots. Roby picked off quarterback Tom Brady and returned the interception all the way to the New England 6-yard line.

However, there was an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on Roby for excessive celebration that backed up the Texans’ starting position to the 21-yard line. Nonetheless, it was great starting position for the Texans to do something about the Patriots’ 3-0 lead. On the ensuing drive, Watson threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to running back Duke Johnson to give Houston a 7-3 lead with 45 seconds to go in the first quarter.
