Texans' Angelo Blackson delivers key blocked field goal
It was a classic overload from the Texans' special teams.
And a massive push of large bodies and the timing of Angelo Blackson resulted in a key blocked field goal Sunday during a 24-21 win over the Tennessee Titans.
Blackson, accomplished at blocking kicks in college at Auburn, used his left hand to bat away a 45-yard field goal attempt by Ryan Succop in the first quarter following safety Kenny Vaccaro intercepting quarterback Deshaun Watson.
Blackson had help from fellow defensive linemen D.J. Reader and Carlos Watkins shoving back the Titans' blockers, including offensive tackle Dennis Kelly,, to give him a chance to block the kick.
