T.J. Yates, Texans hold off Jets for third straight win

Posted Nov 22, 2015
Playing with their third different starting quarterback this season, the Houston Texans knew they'd need to add some new wrinkles to their offense in order to beat the New York Jets. Quarterback T.J. Yates got some help in the passing game from receiver Cecil Shorts, who threw a touchdown pass to help the Texans to the 24-17 victory over the Jets (5-5). Yates tossed two TDs to DeAndre Hopkins.
