Last Season
Houston’s fortunes as a franchise completely turned around because of a spectacular draft by GM Nick Caserio in 2023 when he took Ohio State quarterback CJ Stroud at No. 2 overall, traded up to get the No. 3 overall pick and took Alabama pass-rusher Will Anderson Jr. and also stole rookie receiver Nathaniel Dell at No. 69 overall out of the University of Houston.
Stroud had one of the great rookie seasons in history for a quarterback and was named NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year as Houston finished 10-7 overall and won the AFC South. The Texans clinched the division on the season’s final day when it won 23-19 at Indianapolis and Jacksonville lost at Tennessee. Even if the Jags had won, Houston would have been a wild-card team.
The Texans then blasted Cleveland 45-14 in the wild-card round.
Houston is one of four active franchises to never reach a Super Bowl and those dreams ended in a 34-10 loss in Baltimore in the Divisional Round as Stroud has a bit of a tough game against a stellar Ravens defense. Still a hugely successful season.

CJ Stroud Stats
Stroud was the first player in franchise history to win Offensive Rookie of the Year as Houston matched the number of victories it had in the three prior seasons combined before it drafted Stroud (2020-22).
^DeMeco Ryans
Ryans was a top NFL Coach of the Year candidate but finished second to Cleveland’s Kevin Stefanski via the Associated Press, although the Professional Football Writers of America gave Ryans its award. He was named the PFWA’s Assistant Coach of the Year honoree in 2022 while with San Francisco.
^Houston’s Offensive
Initially, the Bengals were planning to release him after reaching a two-year, $8 million contract with running back Zack Moss. Houston gave Mixon a three-year, $27 million extension. The Texans hope Mixon, who rushed for 1,034 yards and nine touchdowns, can bolster their 2023 rushing attack that ranked just 28th in yards per game (92.7).
The Texans gave up a few draft picks to get Diggs, who led the NFL in receptions during his four seasons with the Bills with a combined 445. Diggs is one of two receivers to be selected to the Pro Bowl in each of the past four seasons, along with Tyreek Hill. Now Houston has a stellar WR trio of Diggs, Dell and Nico Collins.
In the 2023 season, Dell was on pace for 1,205 receiving yards before suffering a season-ending injury in the first quarter against the Broncos in Week 13. Dell and Stroud finished with the eighth-most passing yards for a first-year quarterback and wide receiver duo (709).
^Against the Bears
They have six prime-time games after just three standalone games combined from 2021-23.
