After spending his entire life and football career in Miami, running back Lamar Miller got off to an impressive start with the Texans on Sunday night.

Playing sparingly in the first quarter with the starters, Miller carried four times for 30 yards, averaging 7.5 yards a carry. His long run was 14 yards.

"Lamar definitely brings something special to this offense," quarterback Brock Osweiler said. "I'd be wrong if I didn't credit the offensive line, tight ends and fullback for opening those holes for Lamar.

"They did a great job of getting Lamar to the second level, and from there, Lamar made some big plays for us and showed what he's capable of doing."
