Robert Griffin III had plenty to laugh at during Sunday’s Texans-Titans game, and one sideline staffer wound up in the middle of the joke after taking a hard hit behind the end zone.
The sequence came in the second quarter when two players flew into the staffer near the goal post after a pass breakup. A flag was thrown on the play, and the collision knocked him off his feet. When he got back up, his pants had slipped down far enough to show more than he probably wanted on live TV.
RGIII shared the clip on X and didn’t hold back. He posted it with the caption “Crack kills y’all”.
He was also saying, “Good God, crack kills y’all, better pull them pants up brah. Yeah you caught in 4K, yeah they saw it too.”
The reaction online came fast. One fan wrote, “Grown a** man really rewinded the TV to record another mans a** crack.”
Another said, “Thought this was a safe space..” A third chimed in, “RGIII PLEASE!
😭😂 That’s a flag for unnecessary exposure, not unnecessary roughness!”
The game itself matched up two 0-4 teams in Nashville. Tennessee had already fallen to the Jets, Eagles, Giants and Ravens, while Houston came in off a loss to Dallas.
Even before kickoff, the matchup had already drawn a jab from the Weather Channel account, which joked that it would pass on covering the winless meeting.
At the time of writing, the Texans were leading 26-3 midway through the fourth quarter. Both teams are also in the mix for the No. 1 pick in the 2027 NFL Draft.

Texans Get One Big Boost Before Crucial Titans Showdown
The Texans head into a crucial AFC South matchup against Tennessee with a mixed injury picture that still offers some encouragement. Tank Dell has already been ruled out, leaving Houston to adjust its passing game again, but the defense got a much-needed lift as Will Anderson Jr. and Azeez Al-Shaair returned to full participation in practice and are expected to be available.
Even with those two back on track, the week is hardly clean on either side of the ball. Several other Texans are still working through questionable or limited designations, so the final game-day roster could still shift before kickoff. Against a Titans team that always seems to make these divisional meetings feel heavier than the record suggests, Houston will be watching the injury report closely right up to the end. [Read more 🡒]
Texans Backfield Just Took Another Hit Fans Were Dreading
Houstons backfield took another jolt in Week 5 when David Montgomery was ruled out for the rest of the game against the Tennessee Titans after suffering a groin injury in the second quarter. Before leaving, he had logged five carries for 11 yards, a modest start that still mattered for a Texans offense trying to keep its ground game steady.
Montgomerys status now hangs on how serious the injury turns out to be, and it lands at an awkward moment for a team that has already been dealing with multiple groin issues among its players lately. For Houston, the concern is not just losing one back for an afternoon, but whether this becomes another short-term setback in a stretch where the injury luck in the backfield has been running thin.

Titans-Texans Just Took A Sudden Turn With Houston's Backfield
Houstons backfield took a hit in the middle of its Week 5 matchup with Tennessee when David Montgomery was downgraded to out after leaving in the second quarter with a groin injury. The Texans made the call official and ruled him out for the rest of the game, forcing the offense to adjust on the fly at a spot where game-to-game stability matters plenty.
With Montgomery unavailable, Houston will have to lean more heavily on its other running backs and the passing game to carry the load the rest of the way. The bigger question now is what this injury means beyond Sunday, because the team has not offered any detail yet on how serious it is or whether it could affect his availability in the coming weeks.
