Defensive Spotlight: Will Anderson Jr. looks like the past, present and future for the Texans

This past Monday night, with the Houston Texans trailing 17-6 halfway through the 3rd quarter against the Seattle Seahawks, third-year edge rusher Will Anderson Jr. single-handedly changed the trajectory of the game. On one single play, Anderson earned a sack, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery and a touchdown to make it a one possession game.

In the aftermath of the play, I couldn't help but think to myself, "Man, I've seen that before." Now of course, I've seen no shortage of strip sacks in my decades as a football fan, but it wasn't that I've seen that play before.
