Cowboys Debut Porter Jr. vs. Struggling Texans
4 Oct
Summary
- Cowboys acquire Joey Porter Jr. for defensive boost.
- Texans aim for first win, starting 0-3 this season.
- Veteran referee Brad Allen will officiate the game.
The Dallas Cowboys will travel to face the Houston Texans in a Week 4 matchup, as both teams aim to improve their standings. The Cowboys enter the game with a 1-2 record, looking to build on recent defensive changes. This includes the acquisition of cornerback Joey Porter Jr., who is slated to make his debut. Although he has been with the team for less than a week and has not yet played in 2026, his presence is expected to strengthen the Cowboys' secondary.
The Houston Texans, surprisingly, have yet to secure a victory this season, holding an 0-3 record despite reaching at least 10 wins in their previous three campaigns. The game will feature a top officiating crew, with Kenny Albert handling play-by-play and Greg Olsen providing analysis, supported by sideline reporter Pam Oliver. Veteran referee Brad Allen, who has officiated since 2014, will be on the field. Allen was notably the referee during a controversial two-point conversion attempt by the Detroit Lions against the Cowboys in 2023.
