Cam Akers brought life to the team’s running game on its second series. Akers had two runs for 26 yards, including a 15-yard touchdown run behind a Dalton Schultz block that has given Houston a 7-3 lead with 2:55 left in the first quarter. C.J. Stroud has done his part, completing all four passes for 42 yards.

The Minnesota Vikings saw what their running game turned into with Aaron Jones being hurt, and they got some insurance. On Tuesday, they traded for a familiar face, which was the third trade of the day for the NFL.
