Texans backup quarterback T.J. Yates vanquishes undefeated Bengals

Posted Nov 17, 2015
T.J. Yates left the field pointing at the smattering of Houston Texans fans and pumping his fists. He was one of the last players to leave the Paul Brown Stadium field, the site of his now two improbable wins over the Cincinnati Bengals. The Texans beat the previously undefeated Bengals 10-6 on Monday Night Football. Yates hadn't thrown an NFL pass since Sept. 18, 2014. (ESPN.com)
