Houston legend Craig Biggio led the Texans out of the tunnel for the AFC Wild Card Game
Stop me if you've heard this one before, but Hall of Famer Craig Biggio, former World Heavyweight champion George Foreman and hip-hop recording artist/hype man Lil Jon walk into a professional sports stadium ...
That's not the start of a weird joke, it's what actually happened when the Texans hosted the Chiefs for an AFC wild card game in Houston on Saturday.

Biggio wasn't there just to fraternize with Houston pop culture royalty, though. The former Astro channeled his inner-Lil Jon and tried his hand at the hype game, leading the Texans out of the tunnel at the start of the game.

Unfortunately for the Texans, though, it turns out that J.J. Watt doesn't play quarterback as well as he plays defensive end ... or tight end ... or DH ...
The Texans had Watt catch a direct snap after they fell behind early thanks to a bunch of turnovers and a crazy, 106-yard touchdown from Chiefs return specialist/running back understudy Knile Davis. Watt and Co. ended up losing, 30-0.
