HOUSTON -- Will Fuller had never returned a punt for a touchdown at any level entering Sundays game.Moments after he grabbed the first return of his NFL career he knew that was about to change.It was wide open, Fuller said. It was probably one of the easiest touchdowns Ive scored.Fuller had a tiebreaking 67-yard punt return for a touchdown and the Houston Texans earned a 27-20 win over the Tennessee Titans in their first game without J.J. Watt.It was the first time Houston (3-1) had played without its star defensive end since the 2010 season after Watt , who is out for the season after back surgery, had started 83 straight games since being drafted in 2011.Fuller also had 81 yards receiving and a touchdown.Tennessee (1-3) was driving with less than two minutes remaining, but Marcus Mariotas pass to former Texan Andre Johnson on fourth down was broken up to secure the victory.The Texans squandered an early 14-point lead and their offense was struggling in the second half when Fuller took the punt back for a touchdown to make it 27-20 late in the third quarter.That gave us a real shot in the arm, coach Bill OBrien said.Fuller, who ran a 4.32 40-yard dash at the combine, took the punt and quickly made a trio of Titans miss before outrunning everyone else down the sideline for the score.The 21st overall pick in this years draft was so far ahead of any defenders that he slowed down Usain Bolt-style near the 5-yard line and trotted into the end zone.Once I got past everybody I knew it was a touchdown, Fuller said. So I didnt want run to the back of the end zone and look crazy.It was Houstons first punt return for a touchdown since 2013 and he became the first player in franchise history to have a TD reception and a punt return for a score in the same game. Fullers 5-yard touchdown reception made it 14-0 in the first.The Titans game plan was to shut down receiver DeAndre Hopkins, and they did that, limiting him to just one catch for 4 yards. But putting so much emphasis on him left Fuller open to make plays.You can take one away; you cant take two away, coach Mike Mularkey said.Fullers return came after Jadeveon Clowney led a defensive stand following Brock Osweilers second interception of the game.Clowney, the top overall pick in 2014, sacked Mariota for a 6-yard loss on first down and chased down Delanie Walker after a reception on third down to force a punt.The Texans raced out to a 14-0 lead after touchdown passes by Osweiler on their first two possessions.The teams exchanged field goals before two touchdown runs by DeMarco Murray tied it at 17-17. But the Texans added a field goal to lead 20-17 at halftime.MURRAYS FIRST HALF: Sunday was the first time since 2013 against the Raiders that Murray had two rushing touchdowns before halftime. He had 12 carries for 56 yards before the break and finished with 95 yards rushing.THEY SAID IT: Mariota on the struggles of the offense in the second half: We just werent able to finish. We would get a first down here, a first down there, and, unfortunately, whether it was a penalty or miscommunication, just not executing. We just werent able to do our jobs.CUSHING RETURNS: Houston middle linebacker Brian Cushing returned after sitting out the past two games after injuring his knee in the season opener. He finished with four tackles. He was happy to be back so soon after he was initially expected to be out five or six weeks.I didnt want to be out that long and (we) really cut the time down big time, he said. I was just really excited to be back out there.INJURY REPORT: Tennessee DL Al Woods pulled a calf muscle and Mularkey said hell be out at least four weeks. ... Houston TE C.J. Fiedorowicz injured his knee early on Sunday, but returned in the second half and said he was OK.UP NEXT: Titans : Visit the Dolphins on Sunday.Texans : Visit the Vikings on Sunday.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL James Patrick Jersey .

Adidas Henrik Lundqvist Jersey . -- Gus Malzahn finally had his day in Fayetteville. ARLINGTON, Texas -- Detroit Tigers left-hander Matt Boyd looked a bit like a young Cole Hamels, with the addition of a slider.Boyd limited the AL-best Texas Rangers to two hits over seven innings in a 2-0 win over Hamels, the 2008 World Series MVP who allowed 17 base runners but only those two runs in seven innings Saturday night.To be truthful, I thought Matt Boyd was sharper .... he was a little bit better, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said about the 25-year-old who made his 21st career start over two seasons.It was the longest of 11 starts this season by Boyd (4-2) as the Tigers snapped a five-game losing streak.Everything was kind of working pretty good. The curveball was working early, and the slider was working better late, Boyd said. I was just getting ahead with fastballs, throwing the changeup well and letting the defense work for us.Casey McGehee had four of the Tigers 14 hits against Hamels. Shane Greene worked the eighth and Francisco Rodriguez the ninth for his 33rd save in 36 chances, and to wrap up Detroits sixth shutout this season.The Tigers opened the fifth with three consecutive singles, McGehee leading it off and scoring on a hit by Victor Martinez for a 1-0 lead. McGehee added an RBI double an inning later.The 14 hits were the most ever allowed by Hamels (12-4), who also walked three. But the Tigers left 11 runners on base against him, seven in scoring position. The lefty benefited from a double play, two outfield assists and a pickoff for his final out of the game.We put some pressure on, but he was able to wriggle out of it. Hes one of the best pitchers in the game. Theres a reason why hes one of the best pitchers, Ausmus said. He knows how to handle a tight situation with a lot of men on base and a lot of traffic. He did a nice job getting out of it.The last pitcher in the majors to give up at least 14 hits and two earned runs or less in at least seven innings was Montreals John Dopson, who allowed two runs and 15 hits in 8 2/3 innings against Atlanta on July 3, 1988.Really only gave up two hard hit balls, Rangers manager Jeff Banistter said.dddddddddddd The rest of the game he managed well. He made pitches, got the outs that he needed to, but you dont see that line much any time. Gritty performance by Cole.The Tigers had runners thrown out at third and home by outfielders in the fourth.Mike Avilies tried to advance from first on Jarrod Saltalamacchias single to left, but Jurickson Profar got his first career outfield assist with a one-hop throw to third baseman Adrian Beltre. The inning ended with Saltalamacchia out trying to score when Ian Kinsler blooped a double down the line that ricocheted off Shin-Soo Choo when he slid trying to catch it. But the right fielder got up, retrieved the ball from foul territory and threw to catcher Jonathan Lucroy, who made a sweeping tag for the out.SHORT HOPS: The Tigers had lost six in a row to Texas. ... It was only the fourth time in Rangers history that a starter allowed 14 hits, the first since Matt Harrison against Tampa Bay in 2012. Harrison was one of the players sent to Philadelphia last summer in the trade to acquire Hamels, who is since 19-6 in 35 starts for Texas.TRAINERS ROOMTigers: Dixon Machado made his season debut at shortstop, a day after Jose Iglesias (strained left hamstring) became the Tigers third everyday starter in a week to go on the disabled list. ... Aviles made his first start in center this season, filling in for injured Cameron Maybon.Rangers: Colby Lewis threw a 30-pitch bullpen, and is expected to throw 40 pitches Tuesday. Lewis, 6-1 before a strained right lat in June, is eligible to come off the 60-day DL next Sunday. ...
