Hughes came over from the Buffalo Bills in the offseason and has gotten a chance to shine in Lovie Smith’s defense. Entering Sunday’s game, he’s recorded eight sacks and 25 total tackles. It’s the most sacks he’s recorded since 2018 when he was with the Bills.

He played for Buffalo from 2013 to 2021 and spent three seasons with the Indianapolis Colts before that.

Houston’s defense hasn’t been great this season.
