Here at TexansGameday we have you covered with all the information you need for the game:

Texans vs. Patriots Kickoff Time

TV Channel

CBS - Kevin Harlan, Trent Green and Melanie Collins

The game can also be watched via legal streaming platforms such as Paramount+, NFL+, FuboTV, DirectTV Stream, Hulu Plus Live TV, Sling TV, and YouTube TV.

Texans vs. Patriots Preview

The Texans are sitting atop the AFC South standings at 4-1, and they will look to achieve their best start in franchise history with a win against the Pats on Sunday.

The Patriots will start No. 3 overall pick Drake Maye for the first time in his career, and he'll face a hungry Texans front seven that feasted on fellow rookie quarterback Caleb Williams back in Week 2 to the tune of seven sacks.

If Maye can withstand the pressure and the New England defense can find a way to contain C.J. Stroud and Houston's offense, the Texans may find themselves on upset alert on the road.

Prediction For Texans vs. Patriots

This could be considered a trap game for the Texans, but they still have a sour taste in their mouths from their Week 3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.

They know not to take any opponent for granted, and they shouldn't do that against the Patriots.
