It was the first play after the Colts recovered a fumble from Texans’ running back Royce Freeman in the second quarter.
Ehlinger was under pressure as Texans defensive tackle Rasheem Green had Ehlinger in his grasp and still threw the ball while being dragged down. Greenard, while being blocked, intercepted the pass to extend the Texans’ lead 17-7.
