Watch: Texans rookie DB Calen Bullock records first career interception vs. Colts

Calen Bullock comes up big for the Houston Texans before halftime at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Calen Bullock was best known for his ball-hawking skills at USC.

He’s making the same plays at the next level for the Houston Texans’ defense.

Bullock recorded his first interception against Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson to halt a scoring drive before halftime. The Colts were driving inside Houston’s red zone after a Richardson 19-yard scramble.

Drafted 75th overall, Bullock has been a standout in practice and training camp. He made multiple interceptions against both C.J. Stroud and Davis Mills, plus improved as a tackler.

At USC, Bullock totaled nine interceptions and 17 pass breakups in three years.

The Texans enter halftime with a 12-7 lead. They will receive the ball to begin the second half.
