The Houston Texans and Cleveland Browns were going blow for blow in the first half of their wild-card playoff game Saturday evening, and tight end Brevin Jordan made a standout play.

The Texans were hoping to respond after the Browns started the second quarter with an 11-yard touchdown pass from Joe Flacco to Kareem Hunt to take a 14-10 lead. 

On the next play from scrimmage, C.J. Stroud threw a short pass to his right to Jordan. The tight end made a move and turned on the jets, galloping for a 76-yard touchdown to put Houston back on top with 12 minutes to go in the half.
