HOUSTON -- Imagine being in the NFL as a running back. Your role is to run the ball, pass protect and catch passes out of the backfield.

That's what Houston Texans running back Dare Ogunbowale thought his job would entail Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

But at halftime, Ogunbowale's job duties increased when the Texans were forced to make a change at kicker.

Houston kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn suffered a quad injury in the second quarter, and the team turned to an unusual replacement in Ogunbowale.
