“It means a lot to a lot of these guys just to get away from Uvalde in general and just enjoy being here,” said a player on the Uvalde team.
The Texans hosted the Uvalde high school football team and wore “Uvalde Strong” decals on their helmets after 19 children and two teachers were killed in a shooting there in May.
“It means a lot to a lot of these guys just to get away from Uvalde in general and just enjoy being here,” he said. “A lot of these guys may never experience an NFL game like this. So it’s a real big thing.” “As far as the memory of 21, it’s important to us,” he said. “We all either lost somebody or knew somebody and ... we’re like the rest of the world, we just want to help in some way. And hopefully this helps.”
“It’s unbelievable,” he said. “You live out in a small southwest Texas town, and to know people care about us and when these guys find out that those guys want to know what their score is, it means the world.”Rendon was asked if he was a Texans fan before the game. He paused and looked sheepish before answering.
