Top of the Morning from London, friends.
It's time for theHouston Texansto find their way back in the AFC South divisional race.
With an early kick across the pond, the Texans take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 6 at Wembley Stadium. With a victory, Houston would move to 2-4 on the year and 2-1 in divisional play.
The Texans’ Week 6 battle against the fighting Liam Coens is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. CT on NFL Network. The television commentators for the game are Bob Wischusen (play-by-play), Louis Riddick (analyst), and Molly McGrath (reporter).
Houston is coming off its first win of the regular season with a 26-3 beatdown against the Tennessee Titans at Nissan Stadium. Pro Bowl C.J. Stroud threw for 261 yards and scored two touchdowns as Houston's
offense found life in the second half to snap its winless start.
Everything that could have gone right for the Texans did on both sides, primarily in the second half. The offense stalled because of penalties in the first half, but Houston did enough to set up four field goals from Ka'imi Fairbairn, building a 12-3 halftime lead.
From there, Houston took over and dominated. The offense totaled 225 yards and two touchdowns, including a 9-yard reception to Jaylin Noel in the fourth quarter. As for the defense, it held former No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward and the Titans offense to 49 yards and had 16-0 point advantage.
Houston held the Titans to a season-low 187 total yards. Headlined by a three-sack performance from Will Anderson Jr., the pass rush recorded four sacks, including two on fourth-down stops.
And following Sunday's win, the Texans officially traded for Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. Earlier this week, Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans confirmed that Harrison will play at least a select number of snaps on the road.
Every winning streak has to start with one game. Can the Texans accomplish that before a matchup against the New York Giants ahead of the bye week next Sunday?
Here's where to watch Texans vs. Jaguars in the sixth game of the 2026 regular season.

Texans vs. Cowboys predictions: picks for Week 6
Cole Thompson: "Will this be the Marvin Harrison Jr. breakout game? No. Will this be a game that the defense doesn't give up 20-plus points? Probably not. But the Texans have a weapon in Nico Collins, who seems to turn into vintage TY Hilton against Houston when he plays Jacksonville. In five of his last six games, Collins has finished with over 100 receiving yards. That happens, plus a solid day pressuring Jacksonville's defensive line, seals the deal for Houston to improve one step closer toward .500." - Texans 26, Jaguars 21
Ariana Pensy: "While Houston's offense is ascending with Nico Collins back in the lineup and Marvin Harrison Jr. making his debut, the biggest concern for the Texans lines with the defense. They had a strong showing against Tennessee last week, but the Titans are one of the worst offenses in the NFL. Jacksonville, on the other hand, has one of the best offenses in the league. Wide receiver Parker Washington is coming off a career day in London last week for the Jaguars. This is certainly a winnable game for Houston, but the Jaguars seem like a more well-rounded team right now." - Jaguars 27, Texans 24
