Locked On Texans

The Houston Texans take a big hit with C.J. Gardner-Johnson sidelined due to a lower leg injury

CJ Stroud spoke candidly about the Texans' offensive progress under new OC Nick Caley… and his comments might have raised a few eyebrows

Day 2 of Texans training camp in Greenbrier brought much-needed juice to the offense! Are the Texans finally turning a corner? We break down the impressive performances from rookie WRs Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel, who cooked the second-team DBs for multiple deep plays. Plus, Nick Chubb looked more like himself, the run game improved, and Davis Mills continues to quietly be the most consistent QB in camp.We also dive into the Chubb vs. Dameon Pierce debate — is Chubb better suited for what Bobby Slowik wants, or will DP’s youth give him the edge? If neither emerges, could Frank Gore Jr. or another back step into RB2?And the unofficial depth chart is here! Are there any surprises, or did it shake out how you expected?Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the qualified candidates you want to talk to, faster.

Is the constant pressure getting to him? Or is this all part of the processPlus: Should fans be concerned this early in camp, or is it way too soon to sound the alarm?CJ Stroud & Offense STRUGGLING in Greenbrier?!

Day 1 of Texans Training Camp is officially in the books — and the theme is loud and clear: “Be deliberate in being better than last year.” What does that really mean for the Houston Texans offense?We dive into:✅ The tone shift from last season✅ CJ Stroud's evolution into a true field general✅ Why this offense will be more diverse, more creative, and more dangerous✅ The offensive line battle — and how details will decide the final 5✅ Players being asked to finally do what they’re built to do✅ Why the Texans can’t afford another morale collapse like 2024Plus — how being deliberate in every decision could make or break Houston's 2025 campaign.The truth is the truth, and we’re telling it.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the qualified candidates you want to talk to, faster.

The final pre-training camp defensive grades are here... and let’s just say, the Texans might be building a defensive monster in 2025. We kick off with the DB room, which I’m officially nicknaming the “Don’t Bait” squad — because Derek Stingley Jr., Kamari Lassiter, Calen Bullock, and CJ Gardner-Johnson will bait quarterbacks into game-changing turnovers. Grade? A — and possibly the NFL’s best secondary in the making.But it doesn’t stop there. The defensive line gets an A+ and it’s not up for debate. Will Anderson Jr. + Danielle Hunter = 23 combined sacks, relentless pressure, and a unit that dictated games. This front sets the tone.And then there’s Linebacker 101: Why Houston absolutely needs Christian Harris on the field. He’s fast, versatile, and gives DeMeco Ryans more ways to get creative. Grade? B-... but his impact could level it up quickly.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the qualified candidates you want to talk to, faster.
