Two Key Takeaways After Texans’ First Win of the Season vs Titans in Week 5

It was just a matter of time. After an exhausting first month of the 2026 NFL season, the Houston Texans finally got in the win column for the first time this year. No one would've expected the 0-4 start at all, and it's a big uphill climb for Houston the rest of the season. The Week 5 division matchup against the Tennessee Titans , who were also 0-4, presented a great opportunity for the Texans to get a win. That's exactly what happened in an undramatic 26-3 win at Nissan Stadium in Nashville on Sunday afternoon.
