How to watch the Texans vs. Colts game

The Week 13 matchup airs on national television, giving fans several options. Viewers can tune in through their cable or satellite provider, while cord-cutters can stream the game through participating live-TV platforms.

Rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud has energized the roster and the city. Therefore, many fans want to follow each step of the Texans’ progress as the team fights for consistency. The national broadcast underscores growing interest in Houston’s resurgence.

What fans should know before kickoff

Friday’s schedule means traffic and holiday events around the city could slow fans heading to watch parties. Many sports bars across Houston expect larger-than-usual crowds. Arriving early or reserving space may help secure a seat.

If you plan to stream the game, confirm your login details ahead of time. Testing your connection can prevent interruptions during key moments. Because streaming often lags behind broadcast signals, fans watching with friends on different platforms should be aware of potential delays.

What’s next for the Texans
