HOUSTON -- Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Williams, starting Thursday in place of the injured Marlon Mack (hand), capped a 11-play, 66-yard drive that featured 10 rushing plays with the best run of the drive.
Williams started up the middle, where he was met by Houston Texans linebackers Zach Cunningham and Benardrick McKinney after what should have been a short gain. Williams broke free from both players and bounced to the outside. Texans cornerback Johnathan Joseph thought he had a clear shot at Williams, but the running back delivered a left-handed stiff-arm to the cornerback before running into the end zone for the touchdown.

It was Williams' first touchdown with the Colts and his first in three seasons. Paired with a Jacoby Brissett scoring run in the first half, it's the first time the Colts have had multiple rushing touchdowns against the Texans since Week 16 of 2007, according to ESPN Stats & Information research.
