VIDEO: DeAndre Hopkins Extends Texans' Lead With His First TD of the Season
By Jerry Trotta
Get used to this, folks, because's its bound to be a popular commodity throughout the 2019 NFL season. The Houston Texans, up 7-3 against the Saints, were marching down the field ahead of halftime on Monday night. On second and goal from inside the five-yard line, Deshaun Watson displayed excellent patience and composure in a collapsing pocket to find DeAndre Hopkins in the back of the endzone to extend the Texans' lead on the road at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.

There really is nothing quite like two of the game's best players at their respective positions connecting for six, and it's sure to be the first of many for Nuke and Deshaun.
Drew Brees and the Saints have their work cut out for them tonight, ladies and gents.
