The Texans got tired of waiting on Trindon Holliday to replicate his preseason magic, and the Broncos were the beneficiaries.

Holliday’s 105-yard kickoff return for a touchdown last week helped the Broncos beat the Bengals, and it earned Holliday AFC special teams player of the week honors.

The 5-5 speedster had three return touchdowns in the preseason for the Texans, but they waived him earlier this year when he failed to carry that over into the regular season. The Broncos were quick to claim him, and needed the boost.
