The Indianapolis Colts defeat the Houston Texans 19-17 on Sunday, ending a nine-game losing streak. Spencer Shrader kicks the winning field goal late, sending the Colts ahead with 16 seconds remaining after four field goals total. Indy’s defense holds on in a close finish, as Houston’s late offense comes up just short.
The win also marks the Colts’ first victory since Nov. 2, and it is their first game won in the U.S. since Oct. 26, 2025. Yahoo Sports reports Shrader enters the game with a groin injury sustained in pregame warmups, but still plays and delivers the decisive kick. Other reporting provided is limited, though it aligns with the same final score, late-game swing, and streak-ending context.
