The Texans will also honor area first responders and Houston city officials for their Hurricane Harvey relief efforts prior to Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
"It's going to be a special day," said J.J. Watt, who's raised over $30 million for the victims of Harvey, according to NFL.com's Nick Shook. "For three hours, we want to take people's minds off everything that's happened. We want to give them an escape.
"Our guys are going to give everything we have to make sure to put a smile on this city's face and to give them something to cheer about."
