Twitter reacts to Texans WR Keke Coutee’s game-losing fumble against the Colts
The Houston Texans lost another heartbreaker to the Indianapolis Colts Sunday afternoon with a 27-20 loss at Lucas Oil Stadium.
For the first time since 2017, the Texans will endure a double-digit loss season and have two of those defeats came at the hands of the Colts.
Just like the Week 13 encounter at NRG Stadium, the Texans offense had a mishap at the 2-yard line. Instead of center Nick Martin botching the snap on a second-and-goal, receiver Keke Coutee caught a pass and was slated to cross the goal line, though he would have to bowl through a couple Colts defenders.
Linebacker Darius Leonard ripped the ball away, and the Colts recovered in the end zone for a touchback.
Spectators took to Twitter to convey their shock at yet another Texans-Colts game coming down to a wild finish.

Coutee’s fumble cost Michael Dean some money in a 4-way parlay.
Keke Coutee’s fumble just cost me what would have been the greatest over cover in my few months of sports gambling. To make things worse it blew a 4-way parlay. Keke, I hate you.

Coach Twitter was ready to cut Coutee after the game.
Keke Coutee can’t complain if they cut him tomorrow. He’s had multiple fumbles in critical situations and all have been because of poor FUNDAMENTALS! #Texans #FumbleAfterFumble #SeatTheBall #HighandTight
