HOUSTON (AP) — After Amari Cooper grabbed a 53-yard reception on the game's first play Sunday, the Cleveland Browns star thought he'd be in for a big day.
It turned out to be the biggest day for a receiver in team history.
Cooper set a franchise record with 265 yards receiving and scored two touchdowns and a 2-point conversion, and the Browns beat the Houston Texans 36-22 to move closer to a playoff berth.
“Not to disrespect their defensive backs (but) everything was flowing well and it kind of seemed a little easy,” he said.
Cooper's performance moved him atop the Browns' record book ahead of Josh Gordon, who had 261 yards receiving against Jacksonville on Dec. 1, 2013. It was also the most receiving yards in an NFL game this season. Cooper has 1,250 yards, making him the first receiver in team history with consecutive 1,000-yard seasons.

NO KICKER? NO PROBLEM: RB OGUNBOWALE KICKS FIELD GOAL IN TEXAD WIN
 |
| USA TODAY Sports |
Texans running back Dare Ogunbowale sent one through the uprights in Houston's 39-37 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, becoming the first non-kicker or punter to kick a field goal in a regular-season game in 19 years.
The Texans' strategy was sent into disarray when kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn suffered an injury and was unable to compete in the second half, forcing Ogunbowale to assume place-kicking duties for the home team.
With the game tied at 30-30 in the fourth quarter, Ogunbowale stepped up to take his shot and sent a 29-yard field goal through, prompting special teams coordinator Frank Ross to run on to the field as the Texans sideline erupted in celebration.
