Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans also told reporters that the play by Al-Shaair is “not what we coach.”
“It’s not representative of who Azeez is,” Ryans added. “He’s a smart player. A really great leader for us. We felt his presence not being there.”
Veteran Mac Jones replaced Lawrence at QB. Jones went 20 of 32 for 235 yards with two TDs in relief.
Sunday marked Lawrence’s return to the lineup after missing two games due to a left shoulder injury.
Lawrence posted on Sunday evening that he was back home and feeling better.
