Houston Texans safety Jimmie Ward, who missed the first three games of the 2025 season after the NFL placed him on the Commissioner Exempt List, has inched closer to returning to the field.

The Houston Texans came into 2025 with cautious optimism. They had a defense that had shown promise and an offense built around a young star quarterback.

The […]

saDeMeco Ryans came to the Houston Texans’ defense after losing 17-10 to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday afternoon. Houston hasn’t been at its best on offense.

Though the 2025 NFL season is still young, the Houston Texans’ offense appears to be a problem.

Furthermore, he […]

The Buccaneers […]

After a successful 2024 season in which quarterback CJ Stroud continued to lead the Houston Texans to the best of his ability, if their back-to-back playoff appearances are any indication, the Texans haven’t been off to the best start in 2025.

The Houston Texans’ offense was underwhelming in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Rams, as they couldn’t get much going in the passing game.
