Productive showing in Week 4
Fairbairn converted on 3-for-3 field-goal attempts and 3-for-3 point-after tries in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.
Despite the loss, the Texans offense had it going in Week 4, resulting in Fairbairn finishing with his best performance of the 2026 campaign. His three field goals included a 54-yarder, his second longest kick of the season. With the winless Titans on tap for Week 5, Fairbairn could be in line for another productive showing.
