Texans say they must “keep fighting” to get in win column
By Drew Dougherty, HoustonTexans.com
Excerpt from the article: Following the defeat, several Texans described what they must do to climb out of the depths.
“We’ve just got to keep fighting, keep pushing forward, and that’s it,” quarterback Deshaun Watson said. “But for me personally, I’m not going to let it take my joy. I’m going to continue to live life, continue to work my ass off, continue to come in here every day and play football.”
For the fourth straight game, the Texans also lost the turnover battle. They’ve now turned it over five times in 2020, without recording a takeaway in that same span.
Houston hosts the Jaguars next Sunday at Noon CT. Jacksonville fell to 1-3 Sunday after losing, 33-25, at Cincinnati.
