T.J. Yates helps get his nephew on SportsCenter

Posted Sep 19, 2012
T.J. Yates is now in the running for Uncle of the Year. On Tuesday, the Texans backup quarterback nominated a play his sixth-grade nephew Jordan made in a game last week for SportsCenter’s Top 10 plays. ESPN was happy to oblige T.J.’s request as Jordan’s spectacular one-handed catch in triple coverage garnered the No. 3 spot in the countdown on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning airings of the popular highlight show.
