Buffalo Bills kick returner Ray Davis achieved a memorable birthday milestone by scoring a 97-yard touchdown on a kickoff return against the Houston Texans. Davis, who turned 26 on the day of the game, outmaneuvered defenders with a skillful spin move to reach the end zone, giving his team a 16-13 lead late in the second quarter.

The offensive efforts for the Bills included an early touchdown from running back James Cook III and a first-half performance from quarterback Josh Allen, who passed for 106 yards with an interception. The Bills entered the Week 12 matchup with a strong 7-3 record, positioning them favorably in the AFC East standings and within an AFC wild-card spot.

Conversely, the Texans faced significant challenges due to the absence of key offensive players, including quarterback C.J. Stroud and running back Joe Mixon. Stroud had been sidelined with a concussion, with backup Davis Mills stepping in and leading the team to recent victories. Mills had previously guided the Texans to a comeback win over the Jaguars.
