The Seattle Seahawks (5-2) triumphed 27-19 over the Houston Texans (2-4) in a game that wasn't as close as the scoreboard indicated. Seattle struggled to get out of their own way, committing four turnovers -- their most in a game since 2020.

The Houston Texans lost big Monday night out at Lumen Field against the Seattle Seahawks and not just on the field with a lack of an offensive identity

SEATTLE - Houston Texans receiver Nico Collins sustained a concussion late in Monday's 27-19 loss to the Seahawks and will be in concussion protocol, coach DeMeco Ryans said early Tuesday morning.

Before Monday, the last team to hit those three numbers and win was the SAN DIEGO Chargers back in November 2000 when they had 149 yards passing, five turnovers and a 9.1% third-down conversion rate in a 17-16 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. That was 25 years ago. Even Sam Darnold had to admit the game was a little bizarre.

The Seattle star receiver caught eight passes for 123 yards and the Seahawks harassed quarterback C.J. Stroud all night long to win 27-19.

The Texans return from their off week with a tough game in Seattle needing to keep pace in a crowded AFC playoff race.

Also for the second straight game is quarterback Jalen Milroe serving as the emergency third quarterback. If Sam Darnold and Drew Lock are both injured, Milroe would come in. Otherwise, he’s inactive again. Here are the inactives for both teams, with a note that former Seahawks edge rusher Darrell Taylor appears to be a healthy scratch.
