Behind both the sticks and on the scoreboard, the Houston Texans’ high-powered offense found that on 2nd & 16, there was only one fitting way out: getting behind the Jaguars’ zone defense for a big-time play. Called upon to fulfill the request, Cade Stover did so fluently, working a Buckeye-based connection by speeding into a middle-of-the-field seam before parlaying it into a 27-yard catch-and-run, drawing the crowd’s admiration. Making the most of his opportunities in an atmosphere with plenty of mouths to feed, Stover recorded a one-catch, 27-yard outing across 24 snaps, helping Houston survive for a last-second, 24-20 win over Jacksonville on Sept. 29, 2024.
