KANSAS CITY, Mo. – There really wasn’t any doubt about what Kamari Lassiter was going to do Sunday night despite a foot injury that endangered his status early last week.

Hours spent in the Texans’ training room and a lot of toughness made the difference for the standout cornerback.

“He took a little vet week,” said safety Calen Bullock, Lassiter’s best friend. “We knew he was going to play.”

Lassiter did much more than line up for the Texans’ top-ranked defense.

He excelled against Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

When Mahomes tested Lassiter on a deep ball intended for Hollywood Brown, Lassiter delivered a textbook coverage performance. He flipped his hips, twisted his body and leapt to high-point the football for his third interception of the season.
