DeAndre Hopkins came up with an encore performance on Thursday night. After scoring a wide-open touchdown in the first half against the Indianapolis Colts, he wasn't done putting numbers on the stat sheet. Down 17-13 in the fourth quarter, Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson unloaded a deep pass to Hopkins. The star receiver left Colts cornerback Pierre Desir in his dust and and caught the ball uncontested in the end zone to give the Texans the late 20-17 lead.

DeAndre Hopkins: so nice, he did it twice. And it's really just par for the course for this first-class NFL playmaker.
