Tampa Bay’s Rachaad White scored on a two-yard touchdown run with six seconds remaining to give the Buccaneers a 20-19 NFL victory in Houston on Monday.
Baker Mayfield completed 25-of-38 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions as the Bucs made a fifth consecutive 2-0 start to an NFL campaign while the Texans fell to 0-2.
Houston’s Jaylin Noel returned a punt 53 yards to set up Nick Chubb’s 25-yard touchdown run two plays later, but a missed two-point conversion pass left the Texans ahead by only 19-14 with 2:10 to go.
Mayfield sustained Tampa Bay’s final drive with a 15-yard run on fourth down for a first down and directed an 11-play, 80-yard march capped by White’s decisive run and a missed two-point conversion pass.
