    Aaron Wilson's Final Texans Update Before Training Camp: David Montgomery, C.J. Stroud, Injury News & More

    With Houston Texans training camp about to begin, I was joined by KPRC 2's Aaron Wilson for one final look at the team before players hit the practice field. Aaron shares the latest injury updates on Marlin Klein, M.J. Stewart, Braden Smith, Logan Hall, Nico Collins, Tank Dell and more while discussing everything he's heard covering the Texans throughout the offseason. In this conversation, we discuss:• The latest injury news and what to expect as training camp opens.• Why David Montgomery enters camp as Houston's lead running back and how the Texans envision the backfield with Woody Marks and British Brooks, who have both made notable physical transformations this offseason.• C.J. Stroud's outlook for 2026, why Aaron views last year's playoff performance as more of an outlier than evidence of him being a "choker," and why he expects Stroud to have a strong season.• Expectations for the Texans offense and offensive line heading into camp.• Logan Hall's versatility and how he could make an impact playing both inside and on the edge.• Why Jayden Higgins could be in line for a breakout second season.• Veteran free agents the Texans could target after evaluating the roster during training camp.• The biggest position battles, roster questions and storylines to watch over the coming weeks. We also spend time discussing Aaron's career as an NFL journalist, including the realities of covering an NFL team year-round, building league sources, balancing speed with accuracy, and what goes into reporting on the Texans behind the scenes. If you're looking for one of the most comprehensive previews before Texans training camp gets underway, this conversation has you covered.

    Jon M. Alexander on Nick Caley's Growth, Keylan Rutledge & the Texans' 2026 Outlook

    In this episode, I'm joined by Jon M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle to break down some of the biggest storylines surrounding the Houston Texans as they prepare for the 2026 season. We discuss Jon's conversations with offensive coordinator Nick Caley, including why players have quickly bought into his leadership style, how he takes ownership and accountability, and why those around the organization believe he's willing to adapt and evolve after his first season. We also dive into the context behind reports that Caley may have been too ambitious at times early on and what that means for the offense moving forward. Other topics include: • The expected improvement of the Texans' offensive line and how continuity could pay dividends.• How Houston's offense can continue to evolve with its pre-snap and post-snap operation.• Why the defense could take another step in 2026 and some potential new wrinkles DeMeco Ryans may introduce.• Jon's feature on first-round pick Keylan Rutledge, including the devastating car accident he overcame and his basketball background, highlighted by a playoff matchup against Jabari Smith Jr.• Remembering Janice McNair and the impact she had on the Texans organization.

    John Hickman (@john_hickman12) of Locked On Texans joined the show to break down the Houston Texans heading into the 2026 season. We discussed why he believes the Texans' rebuilt offensive line and the addition of David Montgomery can fuel a much-improved run game, why he's so high on DeMeco Ryans as both a head coach and developer of coaches and players, and why he expects Houston's defense to be even better in 2026. We also dove into whether the defense can add more wrinkles this season, C.J. Stroud, roster strengths, training camp storylines, and the Texans' outlook as they chase Super Bowl contention.
