Dare Ogunbowale is relishing the opportunity to 'help the team win'

For the Houston Texans offense, it's been an all-hands-on-deck effort all season long. Up and down the depth chart, you see the names of guys whose contributions have ranged from expected and necessary to stunning and welcome, with everyone from Davis Mills to Nico Collins to Cade Stover to Woody Marks getting in the mix. But maybe the most unexpected name worth mentioning here is Dare Ogunbowale.

Ogunbowale, a 31-year-old journeyman whose career has consisted mostly of special teams play and occasional work out of the backfield, became the oldest Texans player to score a touchdown this season last Sunday night against the Kansas City Chiefs, giving the Texans a 17-10 lead on just his fourth carry of the season.
