At the very least, the Houston Texans will not get shut out by the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC Wild Card Round on Saturday.

With about 11 minutes to go in the fourth quarter, quarterback DeShaun Watson found wide receiver Keke Coutee with a little screen pass, and Coutee took it six yards for the touchdown:

Not sure if Coutee should be flexing, as his team is still down by two touchdowns, but hey; he scored a touchdown in a playoff game, so that can be forgiven.

The rookie wideout, who played his collegiate football at Texas Tech, was selected by the Texans in the fourth round (103rd pick overall) of the NFL Draft back in the spring.

He had a rather troublesome rookie campaign, as a hamstring injury limited him to just six games. Over that time, Coutee hauled in 28 receptions for 287 yards and a score.

Coutee played three years at Texas Tech, punctuating his collegiate career with an explosive junior campaign in which he caught 93 passes for 1,429 yards and 10 touchdowns.

He put himself on the map during his sophomore year, snaring 55 balls for 890 yards while reaching the end zone seven times.

Houston won 11 games and captured the AFC South division title this season, marking their third division crown over the last four years. However, it is looking like the Texans' playoff struggles will continue.

In 18 years as an NFL franchise, Houston has never made it past the Divisional Round of the postseason and has only made the playoffs five times overall.
