Detroit Lions linebacker James Houston is adamant he didn’t go No. 2 on himself while on the field Sunday … saying the stain on the back of his pants was actually nothing more than some spilled sports drink.
Houston — the 217th pick in the 2022 NFL Draft — put all the speculation to bed in a late-night X post following Detroit’s come-from-behind win over the Texans … explaining the poop-colored marking on his white trousers was simply Gatorade.
“Ay yall,” he wrote, “I had sat on some Gatorade.”
Of course, just hours earlier, many had thought he had a bathroom accident … as — check out a replay from a tackle he made early in the second quarter of the “Sunday Night Football” tilt inside NRG Stadium — it sure looked like he did.

But, according to Houston … there’s no problem here.
The 25-year-old actually had one of his best games of the season despite the whole ordeal … recording a sack in the 26-23 victory — so maybe the Gatorade mishap’s good luck?
Either way, stand down, Charmin.
