WATCH: Brian Cushing Stars in Texans Game Trailer for Divisional Round vs. Ravens
The Houston Texans released a trailer for last week’s AFC Wild Card game, featuring former linebacker Brian Cushing. They went on to dismantle the Cleveland Browns 45-14 in one of the most dominant playoff games in Houston’s history.
It would be irresponsible not to bring Cushing back for more.

The Texans legend came back to narrate Houston’s trailer for the Divisional Round. The Texans, as the AFC’s fourth seed, will travel to the Baltimore Ravens, boasting an extra week of rest and – of course – quarterback Lamar Jackson, who is set to take home his second MVP award.
Houston was an underdog last, even at home. Cleveland had beaten the Texans on Christmas Eve and came into H-Town with the league’s best defense in hand. C.J. Stroud sent them home in just three quarters.
Houston’s ready to continue turning the football world upside down.
“Our goal is simple. We know what’s at stake,” Cushing said. “With every play, we redefine the narrative. Turn doubt into determination.”
The Texans have been doubted at every turn. Yet, they’ve continued to deliver in big moments, and when the season is on the line, their quarterback has shown up. First, he showed flashes of greatness in multiple one-score games. Then he knocked off the Indianapolis Colts to win the AFC South. We already know what happened to Cleveland.
As nearly double-digit underdogs, Houston is once again expected to fall short. They’re playing with house money, so to speak, and Baltimore may be the best team in the league. The Texans don’t care. Each week is an opportunity to get one step closer to a Super Bowl.
“We earned our opp and we ain’t gonna waste it,” Cushing said.
The trailer was filled with highlights from the win over the Browns and highlights from Week 1 when Houston began its season in Baltimore with a loss. It also included the doubts thrust upon this franchise and the attitude head coach DeMeco Ryans has instilled in the Texans. If you weren’t already excited, the one-minute video will do the trick.
“It’s win and move on. We’re not just a contender. We’re rewriting the script. You ready?”
