Ex-UNC offensive lineman Charlie Heck comes in as injury replacement, helps Texans to blowout win

Posted Jan 15, 2024
We talked about former Tar Heel offensive lineman Charlie Heck starting this game at right tackle, but it was George Fant who did so. Heck came on in the first half as an injury replacement, with Texans All-Pro left tackle Laremy Tunsil leaving due injury. Heck helped block for a Houston team that hung 356 yards of offense on the NFL’s top-ranked defense. (Tar Heels Wire)
