Togiai records 10 tackles in Sunday night spotlight​

Now in his fifth year in the NFL, Tommy Togiai had the best game of his pro career in the Houston Texans’ 20-10 win against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Making just his second start of the season at defensive tackle, Togiai led the Texans’ defensive effort by recording a career-high 10 tackles, including a sack of Patrick Mahomes.



He was the first NFL defensive tackle this season – and just the ninth ever – to record 10 tackles with a sack and multiple quarterback hits in a game.


Togiai had four total quarterback pressures vs. Mahomes, according to Pro Football Focus, which gave Togiai the seventh-highest overall grade (82.2) among NFL defensive tackles in Week 14.

In recognition of his standout performance, Togiai wins our Pro Buck of the Week award as the top performer among NFL players from Ohio State in Week 14.

I hate the Browns so much…lolz.

Took Togiai with late rd pick, threw him on practice squad for (2) years and never gave him a real chance.

Now he’s a borderline pro-bowler for Texans and a game wrecker.

We can’t have anything nice…

At least I wasn't crazy when he came out of college. Just took him a few years to find his mojo in the NFL. True, the Browns didn't give him much opportunity, but he didn't show much when he did get a chance. Biggest problem is that they gave up too quickly.
