WATCH: Texans DE DeMarcus Walker records a safety against the Buccaneers

Houston Texans defensive end DeMarcus Walker got a safety against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the third and final preseason game.

Houston Texans defensive end DeMarcus Walker added to the defense’s ability to score in the third and final preseason game.

Against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at NRG Stadium Saturday night, Walker fell on quarterback Blaine Gabbert, who was attempting to recover a bad snap in the end zone. Walker got a safety for the Texans, who trailed 13-2 late in the second quarter.

Walker told reporters on Aug. 19 that one of his favorite aspects of playing in the Texans’ defense was the ability to just play and not overthink.

Said Walker: “Technique-wise and just letting it go. Sort of taking the handcuffs off me and just letting me do certain actions. It’s a little different when you’re in an attack style defense (instead of) these last two years playing a read defense [in Denver].”

The Texans trailed 16-2 at halftime.
