H-Town's got a new spark. Texans rookie running back Woody Marks has been named the NFL Rookie of the Week (Week 4) after a breakout performance in the 26–0 win over the Titans.
Marks delivered 119 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns, punching in an 18-yard rushing score and hauling in a 12-yard TD from C.J. Stroud to help seal Houston's first shutout since 2010.
Why it was Woody
- Do-it-all impact: 17 carries for 69 rushing yards plus 50 receiving yards, showing the same pass-game juice he flashed in college.
- Money in the red zone: His 12-yard receiving TD gave Houston its first red-zone touchdown of the season.
- Big-moment poise: Closed strong with fourth-quarter production as the Texans pulled away.
What's next
Houston turns the page to **Week 5 vs. Baltimore**, and you can bet the Ravens will have No. 27 circled on the scouting report. If Marks keeps stacking games like this, H-Town's offense gets a whole lot harder to defend.
