The biggest play of night for the Houston Texans in their opener against the San Diego Chargers was undoubtedly the game-winning field goal from Randy Bullock.

The play of the night, however, belongs to former Vols running back Arian Foster.

Foster made an impressive leaping one-handed catch.

When you watch the replay, it’s clear that Foster could’ve jumped, turned his body and used both hands to secure the catch. Instead, Foster used just one hand to catch the ball, preventing him from having to turn his whole body, which allowed him to get back to the line of scrimmage, instead of taking a loss.

A very heads up play from the Pro-Bowl running back, who was playing in front of a hometown crowd in San Diego (where Foster went to high school).

Houston was down 21-28 in the 4th quarter at the time of Foster’s catch. The Texans rallied to win 31-28.
