During Week 4 of the 2026 NFL season, the New England Patriots delivered an unexpected upset against the Buffalo Bills, while the Houston Texans dropped to 0-4 after losing to the Dallas Cowboys in a thrilling match.
Houston quarterback C.J. Stroud had an impressive performance, throwing for 347 yards and two touchdowns without an interception. However, he couldn’t outmatch the Cowboys’ Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb duo, who secured the win with a touchdown connection in the final minute of play. Lamb set a career-high with 17 receptions for 189 yards and one touchdown.
Injuries marred the day for several key players. New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley suffered a hamstring injury and was ruled out during a loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Meanwhile, Cincinnati Bengals receiver Ja’Marr Chase exited their game against the Jacksonville Jaguars with a concussion. Additionally, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson left the field with an ankle injury during a win over the Tennessee Titans, resulting in Tyler Huntley stepping in as his replacement.
