For the Houston Texans, there's a handful of names to pick from when it comes to impressive camp standouts, but one that's caught notable attention from both head coach DeMeco Ryans and quarterback C.

After two impressive seasons in the NFL, C.J. Stroud is gearing up for his third year with the Houston Texans. Following back-to-back postseason berths and second-round exits, the fans' expectations is for Stroud and Houston to build on that success.

Not even an hour after his season-ending injury in training camp, Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan told his teammates he would attack rehab head on.

Earlier in the week, the Houston Texans were hit with a heartbreaking injury to tight end Brevin Jordan, who went down with a season-ending knee injury during training camp practice, all less than a year removed from his previous ACL tear from his last campaign, limiting him to only two games played.

Houston Texans QB CJ Stroud says he’s sad about Brevin Jordan’s season-ending injury and vows to support his teammate through recovery.

Before Caley joined McVay's staff with the Rams in early 2023, Caley learned under McDaniels and other New England coaches from 2015 through the 2022 season. Of course, legendary quarterback Tom Brady earned six of his seven career Super Bowl rings while playing in McDaniels' offense.

On Thursday, the two reunited when Stroud’s Houston Texans hosted Young’s Carolina Panthers for a joint practice ahead of Saturday’s preseason game. The quarterbacks were all business during drills, with both players making some nice throws during the two-hour workout. Afterward, they took some time to catch up and chat.

In terms of the biggest X-factor that the Texans' success hinges upon, look no further than the offensive line– the concern that ESPN's D.J. Bien-Aime circles when determining what exactly could lead to a six-win season in Houston.
