Calen Bullock

Few teams have mastered the art of lockdown defense quite like the Texans and Broncos, and during Week 9’s AFC slugfest, second-year ballhawk Calen Bullock ensured that Nov. 2, 2025’s matchup lived up to its hype. Turning Denver’s downfield pass attempt into a “no fly zone,” Bullock — one of last season’s top Defensive Rookie of the Year finalists — saved the day with an acrobatic, falling interception that helped Houston temporarily keep grip on a second quarter lead. The end result would ultimately be an 18-15 loss, but in a game that featured only a single touchdown, Bullock stood among the defensive stars, joining the interception alongside two tackles and a pass defended.
