After a solid rookie year, Houston would sack opposing Quarterbacks 10 times, which he followed with 11 the season after. A Pro Bowl Selection in both of those seasons, Houston was unstoppable in the next season terrorizing QB’s to the tune of 22 Sacks, which led the NFL and would become a Chiefs record. Naturally, he was a First Team All-Pro that year.
A four-time Pro Bowler, Houston signed with the Indianapolis Colts after the 2018 Season. With the Chiefs, Houston had 78.5 Sacks.
