The Green Bay Packers defeated the Houston Texans 35-20 on Sunday, winning a game comfortably for the fourth time in six games in 2020. The game rarely even felt like a two-possession game, thanks to an excellent first half in all phases that set the team out to a 21-0 lead at the break.
With several key contributors out, however, the Packers shuffled the deck a bit in the backfield, the offensive line, and the secondary. But it was an in-game injury and a benching that led to one of the team’s 2020 rookies making an auspicious debut — fifth-round linebacker Kamal Martin took over for Krys Barnes and Ty Summers and largely played well in his first NFL action.
