Bradley Roby has a huge impact in his return from injury
Houston Texans Bradley Roby
The Texans got Bradley Roby back at the right time. He came up huge for Houston in their first win over New England in the Bill O'Brien era.
It started early for Roby with an interception of Tom Brady.

The Patriots led at the time after forcing two Texans punts. They wouldn't lead for long as Deshaun Watson found Duke Johnson for a score.
O'Brien stressed after the game how important it was to convert that turnover into a touchdown.
Later Roby would get Brady again but would lose the interception thanks to a hold. He would make up for it later in the drive.

The Patriots would have to punt on the drive.
Roby would finish the day with a handful or tackles and a pass deflection to go along with his interception and sack.
The latest update from Astros GM Dana Brown on the club's flagship station did not ease anyone's concerns this week. Brown said he was optimistic that Kyle Tucker would be back before September. September?
Which made us wonder what type of injury Tucker is really dealing with? A bone bruise doesn't typically take this long to heal.
Be sure to watch the video above as ESPN Houston's Joel Blank and Barry Laminack share their thoughts on Tucker's health, the Astros' secrecy when it comes to injuries, and much more!
