The Houston Texans only have six picks in the upcoming NFL draft, so they'll have to be wise with who they target. It's why fans should expect them to meet with as many names as possible this week at the NFL combine while on the ground in Indianapolis.

Despite totaling a franchise record in sacks last season, the Houston Texans plan to shore up their defensive line this upcoming offseason.

The Houston Texans' defensive line has been a strong suit since DeMeco Ryans took over in 2023. Yet in his third offseason as head coach, the interior of Ryans’ formidable front is again in flux. Defensive tackles Foley Fatukasi and Mario Edwards Jr.

The NFL Combine is officially underway as head coaches and general managers meet with media to discuss offseason plans ahead of free agency and the NFL draft. Finishing 10-7, the Houston Texans remain in “good standing” among AFC contenders entering Year 3 of the DeMeco Ryans’ era.

The Houston Texans allowed 54 sacks in 2024 despite having the highest payroll of offensive linemen. Both the payroll and the starting five are expected to change to keep quarterback C.J. Stroud upright next year in what could be the most important season in franchise history.

The Houston Texans are trying to build a Super Bowl contender. In just two seasons under head coach DeMeco Ryans and quarterback C.J. Stroud, the franchise has transformed from an afterthought into a legitimate contender.
