Latest news and updates about the Texans

You’ve heard it here, and you’ve heard it everywhere: this year isn’t a great year for running backs. Besides cover-star RB Jeremiyah Love from Notre Dame who will be going in the top ten, there aren’t very many for-sure tailback prospects in this draft. The floor of four and five-star prospects is still there, but […]

Emmanuel Pregnon, OG, Oregon The Houston Texans are the NFL’s youngest franchise, beginning play in 2002, and their early years were marked by steady growing pains.

When you look at how Houston Texans general manager Nick Caserio and head coach Demeco Ryans have built the 2026 roster so far, it takes a minute to find a hole in the starting lineup. Quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end. Check. Check. Check. Check. EDGE, linebacker, cornerback, safety. Check. Check. Check. Check. Kicker. […]

We are 14 days out from the start of the NFL Draft. Houston enters with eight total picks including four in the top 70.

As you’ll see in an article later this week, this will be the most complicated draft to predict in the Nick Caserio era. Balancing needs, positional value, and Caserio’s draft strategy creates a tangled web of conflicting priorities. The Houston Texans’ biggest need, defensive tackle, has never been drafted by Caserio earlier than the sixth […]

The New England Patriots and former third-round draft pick Marte Mapu will go their separate ways. On Tuesday, the third-year linebacker and special teamer was informed of his upcoming release. That never happened: instead of getting cut, Mapu was eventually traded to the Houston Texans as part of a late-round draft pick exchange in 2027. […]
The New England Patriots were ready to release Marte Mapu on Tuesday, but the move never materialized. The 26-year-old will still be playing elsewhere in 2026: instead of getting cut by the Patriots, the team reached an agreement with the Houston Texans for a trade. The Patriots will send Mapu and a 2027 seventh-round draft […]
