"More specifically, Boutte boldly poked at the Texans' secondary, which is arguably the best in the league. He said he was eager to face them, namely All-Pro cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. Time after time, Stingley and Co. have made those who dare to challenge them look foolish throughout the 2025 campaign. No team allowed fewer yards per contest than the Texans this season, and only the Seattle Seahawks finished ahead of them in scoring."
"Boutte snagged what turned out to be the game-sealing 32-yard highlight-reel touchdown grab in the fourth quarter of New England's 28-16 win over the Texans. It was a truly sensational one-handed catch, and he notably did so against Stingley. The Texans managed to hang around for much of the evening despite a nightmarish four-interception performance from quarterback C.J. Stroud. That's because their stop unit lived up to the hype, forcing four fumbles (two recovered), plus recording an interception and five sacks. Nevertheless, Boutte's pay dirt trip was the virtual dagger."
Kayshon Boutte publicly challenged the Houston Texans' top-ranked secondary and singled out All-Pro cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. as a focal point. The Texans allowed the fewest yards per game in 2025 and were second-best in scoring defense, frequently shutting down opponents. Boutte caught a game-sealing, one-handed 32-yard touchdown against Stingley in the fourth quarter, helping New England to a 28-16 victory and a trip to the AFC Championship Game. The Texans still forced turnovers and recorded five sacks, while quarterback C.J. Stroud threw four interceptions. Boutte praised the physicality of Houston's corners yet remained confident in his abilities.
